The Gornergrat railway facing the Matterhorn
Half a day
Early morning on clear days
The Gornergrat railway climbs from the centre of Zermatt to 3,089 metres, passing the Riffelsee, where the Matterhorn reflects on clear days. At the top a terrace faces the Gorner Glacier and dozens of peaks over 4,000 metres.
Good to know
- Sit on the right going up for the Matterhorn
- The weather changes fast
