The Matterhorn, Switzerland's iconic pointed peak is one of the highest mountains in the Alps. On the border with Italy, this legendary peak rises to 4,478 meters, and its four steep faces lie in the direction of the compass points. The first summiting in 1865 ended tragically when four climbers fell to their death during the descent. Today, thousands of experienced climbers come here each summer. At the foot of this mighty peak, lies the charming village of Zermatt, a top international resort with horse-drawn carriage rides, quaint chalets, and world-class restaurants and hotels. To preserve the air quality and peaceful ambiance, motorized vehicles are banned in the village. In the winter, skiers can schuss down more than 300 kilometers of slopes. In the summer, swimming and tennis are popular pursuits as well as hiking, biking, and climbing in the surrounding mountains. Summer glacier skiing is also available.

The Matterhorn is the Mountain of Mountains. Shaped like a jagged tooth, it's a magnet for adventurers looking for mythical views (or climb) in Switzerland.

If this is your first stay in Zermatt then the first thing tol do is to look for the Matterhorn. It's mystical and majestic, it's one of the most beautiful mountains I've ever seen. It's simply fascinating. And for the ones who have already had the chance to see it once, they will confirm that the first thing they do when they arrive in Zermatt is to run to the main street just to see it. This mountain is changing all the time, color, light, "hat cloud" - none of your pictures will be the same : blue sky, snow time, morning, evening and full moon, this will give you some fantastic pictures to bring back.
