Skiing in Zermatt early May and equipment rental
A traveler is planning a short trip to Zermatt on May 2nd and 3rd, looking for easy skiing options and rental prices. They want to know if ski equipment rentals are available and what costs to expect during this late skiing season.
- Check if mid-May skiing is possible, as conditions may vary; make sure to look up the weather forecast before your trip for the best experience.
- Rentals can be found near the lifts at Zermatt Furi or in the village; try Dorsaz Intersport for current rental prices.
- Prepare for possibly less-than-ideal snow conditions but summer skiing is doable on the Klein Matterhorn.

This one and many others. Just ask Google!
That’s a late date for skiing, there may be some restrictions
equally there may be discounts on rental
In mid winter there are dozens of ski rental places in Zermatt, not sure about early May
Thank you Snowman. I was about to ask this question but Crossofiron got to do it first. Anyways, thank you for the info.

Hi!
It is possible to ski in Zermatt even in the summer on the glacier (on the Klein Matterhorn).
I’ve been skiing there at the end of May, it’s totally doable, however you might not be skiing in the best snow conditions! If you’re keen to get some skiing in make sure you check the weather forecast as you might not need that many layers 🙂
Equipment rental is possible either just before getting on the ski lifts at Zermatt Furi, I think there are a couple of shops there for rentals or in the village depending on where you are staying. I’ve never had any issues! Check out Dorsaz Intersport for prices:
