Why are snow groomer drivers in the Matterhorn Ski Paradise nicknamed “heroes of the night”? Find out now. Watch one of the 23 heroes from close up on an exclusive ride in a snow groomer. The goal of the team is to prepare a total of 200 kilometres of piste to ensure that guests can have an unforgettable skiing experience every day.
