How to choose: ZERMATT or SAAS-FEE? This might be tough, because you might not be able to visit both of them, which means, you need to decide for one of the places. Zermatt might be more famous but the choice is not that easy just based on that. There are multiple things that speak for either of the places. The principal mountain at Zermatt is the Matterhorn, which is certainly eyecatching and a landmark of Switzerland, the Allalinhorn is beautiful but obviously not as unique as the Matterhorn. Saas-Fee however has a lot of glaciers, which really makes this village attractive, not only that, there is also an ice pavilion that is larger and a bit nicer than the one in Zermatt. The village of Saas-Fee is not as crowded, which makes the place overall notably cheaper than Zermatt. Due to Saas-Fee being less touristy and smaller, the village feeling in Saas-Fee is definitely better. Zermatt is a hiker’s paradise, from pretty much everywhere you can see the stunning Matterhorn, in Saas-Fee the hiking experience is great too but not as exciting as up in Zermatt with the lakes and the Matterhorn reflections. In general, Zermatt offers the more stunning view points than Saas-Fee. Both places are known for their outstanding hotels, they are equally good, but the ones in Saas-Fee are a bit cheaper overall and not as quickly fully booked as in Zermatt. Both places are great for skiing. Saas-Fee is less busy, more snow sure but does not allow you to cross over to Italy, also the ski resort is notably smaller.
