Ultimate ZERMATT Switzerland WINTER Travel Guide – Best Things to do, Matterhorn Views, Highlights

Welcome to the ultimate Winter wonderland of Switzerland, to Zermatt! Zermatt is the perfect Winter destination in Switzerland. In there, you can enjoy anything you would cherish about a holiday up in the mountains: Fantastic panoramas over the summits of the Swiss Alps, seeing the Matterhorn that is one of the world’s most iconic mountains, a beautiful village with traditional houses, a scenic train ride, hiking trails, skiing and wellness hotels. Zermatt is a car-free village and only can be reached by train. This makes Zermatt more enjoyable to explore. The most famous attraction of Zermatt is the Gornergrat. To go up there, you will be first enjoying a very beautiful 40 minutes’ train ride, during which you get to see the Matterhorn from various angles. Up on 3100 meters, you will arrive at the Gornergrat at where you can see a beautiful panorama over some major summits: The Matterhorn, Dufourspitze, Monte Rosa, Allalinhorn and the Kleinmatterhorn. Since you visit the Gornergrat, consider going for sledding and hike down to the Riffelsee. Another important panoramic lookout point is the Rothorn. This is the cheapest summit you can visit in Zermatt. The Rothorn is great due to its perfect frontal view over the Matterhorn. In general, it’s less busy than the Gornergrat. You may also get out at Sunnegga and hike down to Findeln, a very beautiful small village. This trail is also open, even at bad weather conditions. The Kleinmatterhorn is the highest station in all of Europe and certainly a very special attraction of Switzerland. You will be very close to the border of Italy, you get to see the Matterhorn from the side and you can look down to Val Aosta and the smaller summits. The Kleinmatterhorn is on 3880 meters, the air up there is thin. This is a very unique experience to be up there. Even more special is the large glacier cave called Glacier Paradise. In there, you may see various ice sculptures that are typical for the canton of Valais and Switzerland. Always enjoyable is to explore the village of Zermatt on a walk, this is even nice during snowy days as well as dusk and the night. Best is to stay overnight in Zermatt, if you can afford, stay at a wellness hotel and enjoy the whirlpools. A great alternative for bad weather days would be the hiking trail from Furi down to the village of Zermatt. It’s open on a daily basis during Winter and pretty cheap, as you only need to pay to go to Furi. Zermatt is more than only seeing the Matterhorn, it’s a perfect Winter Wonderland getaway.
