The Matterhorn, Swiss Alps, Switzerland
5.0 (3.971 reviews) Spent More than 3 hours Ranking #2 in Swiss Alps Mountains
What a mountain! What a view!!
Recognized worldwide as the mountain on the Toblerone chocolate bar, the Matterhorn sits on the Switzerland-Italy border. Enjoy magnificent views of the mountain from Zermatt, a quaint car-free village; or from the top of Gornergrat, where you’ll find viewing platforms, a short Scenic Loop hike, and a virtual reality paragliding experience. If you're an early riser, don't miss the chance to take the first train up to Riffelsee, and snap a picture of the Matterhorn together with its reflection in a lake. Even better, have an aerial view from above on a helicopter tour, or check out the best spots on a guided day hike. – Tripadvisor

Year end trip to Switzerland 2022 2023
The train and the gondola/cable ride provided beautiful views. Out of all the mountains we visited, this one and the Titlis were the best. The staff and ticket office were all very friendly and accommodating which made the trip easy and we felt very safe. Lots of skiers and the small town is very attractive and has a lot of choices of shops and restaurants. We stayed at the Grand Hotel Zermatterhoff which was centrally located and highly recommend spending a few days in Zermatt.

Matterhorn
4 years in a row i have been visiting Zermatt and this beautiful mountain. It was love at first sight and you all should visit The Matterhorn. My favourite! I recommend you to stay at Riffelalp Resort 2,222m, you will have the Matterhorn right in front of you, and Matterhorn will be the first thing you will see in the morning.
