Cose da vedere a Zermatt

Zermatt's Unmissable Alpine Wonders

Zermatt centers around the 4,478-meter Matterhorn, a peak defined by its distinct pyramidal shape and mountaineering history. The car-free village features the historic Hinterdorfstrasse with 15th-century wooden chalets and the high-end shops of Bahnhofstrasse. High-altitude access is provided by the Gornergrat rack railway, reaching 3,089 meters, and the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise cable car, the highest in Europe. The Matterhorn Museum documents the region's first ascents, while the expansive ski resort connects Switzerland to Italy's Breuil-Cervinia.
