As a complement for an unforgettable winter vacation in Switzerland, this winter, The Chedi Andermatt has transformed its sunny Courtyard into a traditional mountain winter village, offering hearty food and drinks and festive experiences rooted in nostalgia to guests of all ages.
Walking through the Winter Village, guests will find themselves surrounded by tall fir trees as they amble down snow-covered paths leading to a real forest, with small clearings and traditional Swiss and Scandinavian cabins to explore. Experiences include intimate dining at The Chalet and The Kota - a typical Scandinavian hut built around a central firepit - a Finnish barrel sauna and hot tub, and a lively Village Square.
Staying true to The Chedi Andermatt’s sustainable ethos, every cabin in the Winter Village has been made with local wood, whilst The Winter Village makes the most of the natural light shining through the trees, using only a few additional lanterns to illuminate The Courtyard. Fir trees have been planted in pots, so they can be re-used around the town of Andermatt after the festive season.
The charming winter pop-up restaurant, The Chalet, returns to The Courtyard to serve up Swiss specialties such as raclette and cheese fondue. The restaurant has expanded for this winter season, with a new heated lounge seating up to 40 guests, with cosy gathering spots around open fireplaces.
We're looking forward to welcoming you again for the winter season 2023.
The Winter Village is a convivial space for guests of all ages to enjoy. On selected afternoons, The Chedi Bear Club will take excursions to The Winter Village for games, Guetzlen and handicrafts, and to meet the roaming llamas. The Chedi Andermatt has worked in collaboration with a local llama farm for a number of years, and recently adopted a friendly llama.
