Andermatt, Switzerland is a ski location in Switerland about an hour and a half South of Lucerne. It is unique because almost the entire ski area is above the tree line in the alps. This makes for incredible alpine views during sunny days. Make sure you stop at the Bergrestaurant Nätschen restaurant on Grossboden. The restaurant has a large outside deck that offers incredible mountain views.
