CHALET Z'GOGWAERGJI

Chalet Z'Gogwärgji (dwarf chalet) is the orginal old name for our unique new chalet in the heart of Zermatt's old village where the houses date back to the 18th century.

Converted from an old sheep barn and retaining many of the original features, today's chalet offers a unique individual Walliser chalet perfect for 4 people.The entire chalet on 3 floors is at the disposal of our guests (not to be confused with an apartment in a chalet).

We have retained most of the original weather-worn facade from the 18th century and used larchwood from the local forests for the interior together with Piemont granit . All this evokes a real sense of past combined with cosy luxury.

Situated in the heart of the old village called "Hinterdorf" near the river, the chalet is close to all facilities and mountain departure stations. It has been lovingly reconstructed on 3 floors and comprises:

2 double bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms (lower ground floor and ground floor) are joined by a winding wooden staircase leading to the living/dining room with kitchen at the top of the chalet

The lower ground floor also has a sauna for relaxation after a day in the mountains, washing machine with dryer and a wine cellar with a selection of the best local wines from the Valais area of Switzerland
