Put those two things together and you get the Swiss Food Festival! Inspired by a cheeselover's dream, and considering the events in Gstaad, Lucerne, and St. Moritz, the idea was born. Inspired by the collaboration and the motivation to enjoy the summer in the mountains, the Swiss Food Festival is becoming a very popular weekend on the Zermatt event calendar.
If you are thinking about heading to Switzerland this summer for your getaway (and living in Tennessee, being in the mountains during the sweltering summer heat sounds just about perfect), this is a great weekend to schedule around.

At the stations Furi, Schwarzsee, and Trockener Steg additional specialities are served. A complete and unforgettable breakfast experience.
The Swiss Food Festival presents: Gondola fondue.
As the last sunbeams of the day light up the mountain peaks around Zermatt, you will be gliding past the Matterhorn, relaxing in a cable car gondola. Enjoy a homely cheese fondue, accompanied by a refreshing drop of Valais wine. This traditional main course is framed by a choice of first courses as well as various desserts and a local schnapps. The gondolas are prepared for 4 people. You are only two? You are welcome to share the gondola with another couple.
Then you can hang with this cool lady!
