The
Valais
Village
The car-free village of Zermatt offers multifaceted mountain romance. 365 days a year. Everything is in a small space. Fancy a walk through the romantic corners in the old part of the village? Stroll along Bahnhofstrasse?
Life pulsates in Zermatt (1620 m). Shops, cafés, bars and elegant hotel lounges offer variety. But Zermatt is also the Walser village with wooden houses over 500 years old. Everything is within walking distance - including romantic quarters and quiet corners. And all paths lead directly into the quiet and wild mountain world at the foot of the Matterhorn.
For the
Discover
You can feel the anticipation on the train from Täsch: couples look longingly out of the window, children fidget and stuff their Toblerone, people search for their cameras. And then, when they arrive in Zermatt, everyone is delighted by the pop-up book effect of the Matterhorn (4478 m), the beautiful, unique peak that rises above the village like a shark's fin.
Seeing the Matterhorn once in your life is a must. The superlatives: Europe's highest mountain railway station, the most beautiful ski slopes and hiking trails, scenic excursion mountains, 38 mountains towering over 4000 m, extremely attractive, diverse flora and fauna. Everyone will find something to discover here.
