An authentic Alpine lifestyle village
The Andermatt Holiday Region lies in the heart of the Swiss Alps and is surrounded by natural landmarks. The central location makes the journey to Andermatt from the north, south, east, and west short and pleasant.
Andermatt is blessed with a great variety of alpine flora and wildlife, mountain lakes, brooks, springs, and untouched mountainous area.
There are countless numbers of touring possibilities with the eight surrounding Alpine passes. This diverse region is the ideal place in winter and summer for nature, sport and culture lovers in search of unforgettable moments in a mountainous setting.
The village is rooted in history reflected in the local history museum and the historical village centre. It also resonates with myths and legends such as the myth of Gotthard and the legendary Schöllenen gorge with the notorious Devil’s Bridge and the Devil’s Stone.
HIGHLIGHTS
-
Producing sustainable energy
Andermatt’s natural energy sources (water and wind) are being generated sustainably instead of importing energy from elsewhere in the country. As a result, the village has earned the energy label “Energiestadt mit der Energie der Berge”.

OK:GO initiative
The OK:GO initiative is being implemented in the holiday region.
OK:GO supports tourism providers in Switzerland in collecting and publishing information on the accessibility of their offers and services. This makes travel planning easier for people with disabilities, senior citizens and families with small children. Several hotels and shops are already on the online platform publishing information about the accessibility of their offerings and services in the village.
