2 On the Sunny Side of Winter When the sun shines the heart opens up. When lowlands suffer with fog, the sun is like a magnet the slopes are good, even great. And what a wonderful feeling to see smiling faces all around: winter enthusiasm at its best: whether due to the helpful, sincere attitude of the friendly staff at the Skiarena Andermatt-Sedrun towards their guests, or because of the joyful beaming of the winter guests themselves. The sun rises both in reality and in one's own heart. One gets warmed up a little nearer to heaven and there is plenty of sun for it. If Winter 2013/14 becomes as wonderful as the attractive offers of the Skiarena Andermatt-Sedrun, nothing can go wrong anymore. You can reach the Skiarena from Lucerne in less than one hour. The ski resorts Gemsstock, Nätschen and Sedrun-Oberalp are all included in one single ski pass. And soon the connection of the ski resorts Andermatt- Sedrun will be realised. You can already look forward to the Skiarena Andermatt-Sedrun with its modern conveyance facilities, new slopes and offers right in the heart of Switzerland.

9 Bernhard Russi Run Freeride Powder Mekka This is my favourite slope and one of the most beautiful downhill slopes in the Alps Quotation by the native of Andermatt, the Olympic winner and World Champion about the glacier downhill slope at Gemsstock which was named after him. The Gotthard region is according to respective trade magazines a superlative off-slope area. Above all, the Gemsstock with up to 1500 metres altitude difference and with its countless couloirs, cliffs, alpine classics and downhills, gets many hearts beating faster. Freeriders are welcomed guests in the Gotthard region with its longstanding tradition.
