Expert skier Carl notes the "perfectly groomed pistes" across the extensive 300km ski area.

Zermatt's groomed runs receive glowing feedback from our Snomad community. Matt, an intermediate snowboarder, highlights the "amazing runs" with great views. The high-altitude slopes are meticulously maintained, offering exceptional skiing for all abilities. As Charlie points out, Swiss pistes tend to be on the harder side but are "kept to a very high standard" to ensure less experienced skiers are well catered for. Alan describes "wide array of slopes and plenty of km to cover" for skiers of all levels. With what Gemma calls "very scenic runs below the Matterhorn", you'll enjoy perfectly groomed pistes while taking in breathtaking Alpine panoramas.

#3 Crans Montana - Groomed Runs Rating 4.67

Crans Montana's groomed runs are a highlight for many skiers and snowboarders alike. Our reviewers mention beautifully maintained wide pistes with plenty of variety. One Snomad community member liked the continuous and varied skiing options, particularly recommending the trip to Plain Morte glacier for "unreal views and well maintained pistes back down the mountain." The resort offers excellent terrain for all abilities, from beginners to experts, with long flowing runs, particularly from the glacier. Though some lower slopes can get slushy in the afternoon sun due to the south-facing aspect, staying high keeps the conditions brilliant throughout the day.
