Out and about by bike in Zermatt

14.08.2025

Zermatt is a true paradise for mountain bikers, with hundreds of kilometres of trails and routes for every level of difficulty and every taste. The trails lead through impressive natural surroundings with mountains and lakes waiting to be discovered.

Many bike routes start practically right outside the CERVO Mountain Resort. The CERVO is more than just a hotel; it is a base camp for modern explorers.

Experience a diverse biking region in Switzerland – for beginners and professionals alike.

CERVO – The Bike Hotel

At CERVO, your bike won't be in the way – it will be safe and dry in our in-house bike room, ready for your next adventure. And if the trails have left their mark, our washing station will get your bike sparkling clean again, and our laundry service will take care of your bike clothes so that you're ready to go again the next morning.

Travelling without your own bike? No problem. High-quality rental bikes and a few test bikes are available on site – hassle-free and ready to go at any time.

And then: off you go. Out. Up. Down. Dust. Wind. Speed. Discover the world on two wheels – your way.

Your tour to Schalisee

If you want to take a more relaxed approach to the tour – or treat yourself to some refreshment along the way – head for Schalisee in Täsch. Just a few kilometres downstream, this turquoise-green Alpine lake is like something out of a picture book. Get off your bike. Take off your shoes. Walk into the water. Or simply let your gaze wander over the mountains and enjoy a cool drink from the Shabby Yummy Cantina.

And for those who don't know yet: right by the lake is the Bike Zone Schalisee – a small but excellent playground for riders, with drops, curves, jumps and technical elements. Ideal for practising, trying things out or simply letting off steam. The perfect mix of relaxation and adrenaline.

The best part comes afterwards

When you return to CERVO on your bike in the afternoon, a cool drink will be waiting for you: wear your bike helmet on the Madre Nostra terrace and you will receive a refreshing Huntsman beer at a special price.

Or you can continue straight on to the Atman Mountain Spa, where a sauna, steam bath or massage will give your muscles exactly what they need right now.

More than just a bike hotel

The CERVO is not a traditional sports hotel. It is a place that understands that exercise and relaxation go hand in hand. That nature is just as important as design. That a day on the trail doesn't end with the last kilometre, but with a good conversation on the terrace or a quiet moment in the spa.

Here, a bike tour becomes an experience. And a weekend might just become a new habit.
