Discover Zermatt

  • Make the panoramic journey by cable car to Cervinia in Italy on the Matterhorn Alpine Crossing
  • Ride the cog-wheel railway to Gornergrat for the best view of the Matterhorn
  • Enjoy two guided walks per week with Inghams holidays to Zermatt, perfect for exploring the stunning surroundings

Zermatt is the ultimate destination for summer holidays in the Swiss Alps, with the iconic Matterhorn as its star attraction. While mountaineers have long used this picturesque town as a base for scaling the famous 4,478-metre peak, the Matterhorn is just one of 38 towering mountains over 4,000 metres in the area. This makes Zermatt a paradise for hikers, with footpaths winding through valleys, gorges, Alpine meadows, and up to rugged high-altitude terrain. Beyond the trails, the charming town invites you to relax, wander its streets, and soak up the views from sunny café terraces. Outdoor enthusiasts can also enjoy cycling, climbing, high ropes, via ferrata routes, and year-round glacier skiing.

Things to do in Zermatt

Enjoy unrivalled views from the highest cable car station in Europe at 3,883 metres above sea level. You'll need plenty of time to explore up here as the air is quite thin, but the views will certainly keep you entertained for a long while - on a clear day views stretch as far as the Jungfrau and Mont Blanc. You can also visit the Glacier Palace which is a network of tunnels and caves 15 metres below the surface of the ice, with sculptures and an ice toboggan run. 

Why not take a trip to Italy while you're there, too? The new 3S cable car link completes the Matterhorn Alpine Crossing which enables cable car travel over into Italy on a stunning panoramic journey.

Traditional, black-nosed sheep spend their summer grazing the pastures of the Gornergrat, and thanks to the shepherdess, you can meet them. They’re tracked with GPS so are easy to find as they laze in the sun and graze in the meadows - Shepherdess Nathalie is happy to share interesting information about her woolly companions.

Zermatt offers a wide variety of trails, from flow trails through the forests to natural alpine trails that are more technical. Weave through the Swiss stone pine forest on the Sunnegga flow trail, explore the hamlet of Furi and then enjoy the flowy descent down the Moos Trail back to Zermatt or experience alpine meadows on the Riffelberg Trail. There's also a mobile pump track in Zermatt throughout the summer season and the Bike Zone Schali next to the Schalisee in Täsch which has a pump track, skills loop and some jumps. Zermatt permits biking on many trails, so long as there's no signs forbidding it, so for those wanting to explore more alpine terrain and natural trails, there's plenty on offer here.
