Ticino is scared for its visitors this Easter. Because the weather is going crazy: while heavy snow falls in front of Gotthard’s southern gate, the sun mostly shines on the mountains.
A situation that makes the Swiss ski regions very happy: It also helps that Easter takes place in March this year. So what are you waiting for? Strap on your boards and hit the road! Blick shows, among other things, which large and medium-sized ski areas are still open at Easter.
Here the sun shines for you
The Flumserberg SG ski area expects up to 5,000 guests per day at Easter. When asked, he says, “It will snow again in the middle of the week and the sun will be out on Easter days.”
In Toggenburg (also in the canton of St. Gallen) the forecast also promises “great Easter weather”. “You can still enjoy the last days of the ski season in Obertoggenburg when the lower valley is already shining with its most beautiful spring colours,” a spokesman said.
Booking availability for hotels in Crans-Montana VS is very good; however, there are still free accommodations available for last-minute travelers. There are also “ideal opportunities for winter sports enthusiasts”.
But conditions are good not only in the Valais but also in Graubsunu: the Flims-Laax-Falera region recorded 5 percent more bookings than in the previous year. A spokesman speaks of excellent winter sports conditions for Easter.
Likewise, the booking situation at Davos Klosters GR is better than last year. Prospects for Easter are great: “Snow conditions couldn’t be better and the weather forecast is promising.”
Demand has increased in the last few days at the Arosa Lenzerheide GR ski area. This may be due to bad weather forecast for Ticino. Snow conditions are very good in Davos, as are the weather conditions.
Interspersed views
Unfortunately the weather is not equally good in all ski areas. “Forecasts for Easter are mixed,” says Andermatt-Sedrun UR/GR. Still, we hope that we will end the season successfully, thanks to the very good ski conditions.
St. Things may be more complicated at St. Moritz GR, too. But: “According to the weather report, there will always be sunshine throughout the Easter weekend,” he says when asked. But now there is plenty of fresh snow again.
The weather is also quite unstable in the canton of Bern. “We are therefore expecting slightly fewer guests than last year,” says the Adelboden-Lenk ski area. Accommodations are less crowded during the Easter period than last year. But snow conditions are still good.
Just like in Gstaad on Saanerslochgrat. “Unlike Gotthard, Skiwelt Gstaad expects free travel during the coming Easter days,” a spokesman said. It is particularly well used by hotels with spa facilities. Although the winter season ends in Gstaad after Easter, you can continue skiing at Glacier 3000 VD until the end of April.
Season until May
The season at Zermatt VS will last until May 1. “Prospects for the second half of winter are quite positive,” Zermatt Tourismus writes when asked. Forecasts for Easter business are “very promising.”
The ski area Engelberg-Titlis OW is experiencing its longest season until May 5th. Thanks to the current booking situation, the region is looking forward to busy Easter days. Snow conditions are still great; Even the descent to the village is still open to skiers.
Warning: traffic jam
Due to the generally good weather conditions in the mountains, many people have made reservations to stay at the ski area. For this reason, waiting times on the streets may be longer. Since they are closed in winter, the Alpine passes cannot be used as an alternative route during Easter. If you don’t want to get stuck in traffic, it’s better to take the train.
