When you are talking about budget and snowboarding, Switzerland doesn’t usually pop up as a viable option. Yet Andermatt, close enough to the rather posh and pricey big-name resorts including Saas Fee, Zermatt and Verbier, falls into that category, being one of the cheapest resorts in all of Switzerland.
Additionally, there is some seriously good snowboarding on offer here, with a combination of north-facing slopes and an altitude of 3000-metres providing consistent snow and loads of vertical. In fact, for confident snowboarders there is always untracked fresh waiting to be shredded.
