"Flow and fun are among the main attractions of the new Sunnegga-Trail – for beginners and pros alike. You’ll definitely want to ride it more than once.
The Sunnegga-Trail is easily reached by rail: in Zermatt just take the funicular up to Sunnegga. Once at the top, there’s a glimpse of the Matterhorn and off you go. The trail starts directly beneath Sunnegga Station and it’s great for beginners and professionals alike. Follow the trail for around six kilometres, dropping a total of 500m, you’ll find yourself back above Zermatt after a 15-minute ride through the woods."

"Der neue Sunnegga-Trail bietet vor allem eines: Flow und Spass. Für Anfänger und Pro’s. Da fährt man garantiert mehr als einmal runter.
en Sunnegga–Trail erreicht man bequem per Bahn: In Zermatt nimmt man die Standseilbahn hinauf nach Sunnegga. Oben angekommen, erhascht man einen Blick auf das Matterhorn und dann kann es losgehen. Direkt unter der Sunnegga-Station beginnt der Trail, der sich für Anfänger wie auch für Profis eignet. Auf fast sechs Kilometern geht es insgesamt 500 Tiefenmeter nach unten und nach einer 15-minütigen Fahrt durch den Wald findet man sich etwas oberhalb von Zermatt wieder."
