Active outdoor activities in spring: what you need to know

Spring has arrived in the Andermatt Holiday Region - but there is still an exceptional amount of snow at higher altitudes. As a result, many hiking trails are currently only passable to a limited extent or not at all.

You should be aware of this:

• Hikes above 1,600 metres above sea level are not yet possible.

• Below 1,600 metres above sea level, signposts have been installed for the most part.

• The avalanche danger currently varies between level 2 (in the morning) and level 3 (in the afternoon). Please check the SLF avalanche bulletin daily.

Currently passable, snow-free paths:

• Andermatt – Nätschen

• Andermatt - Chilchenberg

• Unteralp circular routes

• Andermatt – Realp

• Andermatt - Göschenen through the Schöllenen

• Schöllenen circular route

• Realp - Zumdorf (circular route)

• Golf circular route

• Arni - Gurtnellen village

• Around the Arnisee
