James Bond came to Andermatt first – the famous chase on the Furka Pass in “Goldfinger” was filmed here in 1964 – but remarkably, the beauty and unrivalled development potential of Andermatt as an upmarket winter destination has stayed a local secret.

Located in equal distance and easy reach from Lugano, Luzern, Bern and Zürich, Andermatt is at the center of the Saint-Gotthard Massif and the historical center cross of north-south and east-west traverses of Switzerland.

Sitting at 1.437 meters above sea level with the largest amount of snow in Switzerland, the charming, historic village offers easy access to the Gemsstock ski area with a chairlift also linking the village with Nätschen’s gentler slopes making the destination eminently suitable for families and advanced skiers as well as free-riders.
