Frequently asked about Andermatt-Sedrun
How high is Andermatt-Sedrun?
The ski area runs from 1,444 to 2,963 metres above sea level, a vertical range of 1,519 metres. For snow reliability the lower figure matters more: that is where the snow disappears first, and where a mild December is felt before it is felt at the top.
How many kilometres of piste does Andermatt-Sedrun have?
120 kilometres on 22 lifts, according to the operator. There is no binding standard for measuring piste kilometres, so the figure is comparable between resorts only to a point. The lift count says at least as much about how big a place feels.

Weekend of 7/8 November: Glacier 3000, Verbier and Cervinia start, and from Tuesday the freezing level climbs to almost 3000 metres
What the lift companies themselves confirm for the weekend, what they do not, and what the official MeteoSwiss forecast says for next week: dry until Monday, then rain up into high terrain, with snow returning only on Friday.
Second winter storm: up to 24 centimetres in 24 hours measured, and the next wave arrives on Sunday
SLF stations recorded a rise in snow depth of up to 24 centimetres in 24 hours, and the deepest snow measured is 36. On Sunday MeteoSwiss expects the next wave, and on Tuesday the freezing level climbs above 4,000 metres. What was measured and what is due until 1 November.
Will the Sölden World Cup go ahead? The figures say yes, and from 9 October the ski area runs too
On 24 and 25 October the alpine World Cup opens on the Rettenbach glacier, and the glacier ski area already opens on 9 October. At 2,900 metres, 86 hours over the next sixteen days are cold enough to make snow; nine hundred metres lower, ten Swiss areas together manage 95. Why a race is easier than a season.
The warmest September in 36 years. It says almost nothing about the winter
September 2026 was the warmest at 2,000 metres in our series. We ran the numbers on 35 winters: after the ten warmest Septembers, 316 centimetres of snow fell on average; after the ten coldest, 267. The relationship points the opposite way to the one people assume, and it is weak.
