Andermatt
Switzerland
High-Alpine village in the canton of Uri, Andermatt sits at the historic crossroads of Switzerland's north-south and east-west mountain routes through the Saint-Gotthard Massif. Long a transit point before the Gotthard tunnels redirected traffic, it has remained a quiet ski resort with several historic churches and a café and restaurant scene that outpunches its small size. Large-scale resort development is now planned, making this a transitional moment for the village.
