Staying in Täsch for visits to Zermatt

Measure the journey from your accommodation door, not just the shuttle ride. A walk to Täsch station, a wait for the train and the onward walk in Zermatt all add to a mountain outing. Staying close to the station makes repeated trips simpler. Check parking arrangements separately, because an accommodation booking does not necessarily include a space.
