Chris Hemsworth was recently in Switzerland on an “epic little get away with the fellas” that took him to the stunning slopes of Zermatt Ski Resort at the foot the Matterhorn.
The 41-year-old Aussie actor is big on board sports as an avid surfer and snowboarder who enjoys catching waves and visiting Thredbo Ski Resort on his home turf.
Hemsworth Instagram posts include shredding videos, après beers with the boys and a helicopter ride to get an up close look at the Matterhorn. Well done Thor.
