Activity itinerary

Gornergrat

  • 10m
Begin your scenic stroll through Zermatt at the Gornergrat Railway Station, a charming blend of vintage flair and Alpine energy. This historic station, with its red carriages and lively atmosphere, serves not only as a gateway to mountain adventures but also as a nostalgic reminder of Switzerland’s rich railway tradition.

Bahnhofstrasse

  • 10m
From there, walk down Railway Station Street - Zermatt’s lively main thoroughfare. As you pass by upscale boutiques and cosy Alpine chalets, take time to admire the picturesque blend of traditional architecture and stylish modernity. This street is perfect for a bit of window shopping or snapping photos of flower-draped balconies with the peaks in the distance.

Zermatt

  • 10m
Next, veer onto Old Village Lane, where Zermatt's quieter soul reveals itself. Here, weathered wooden cottages and narrow lanes create an atmosphere of peaceful seclusion, transporting you back to a simpler time. The scent of pine and the quiet creak of timber underfoot complete the immersive experience.

Ibex Fountain

  • 10m
Soon, you’ll spot the whimsical Ibex Fountain, a tribute to the iconic Alpine animal. This beautifully sculpted piece is more than a photo opportunity—it’s a nod to Zermatt’s deep connection to the wildlife and rugged terrain of the surrounding Alps.

Mountaineers' Cemetery

  • 10m
Nearby lies the poignant Mountaineers’ Cemetery, where the stories of climbers who challenged the mighty Matterhorn are honoured. It’s a peaceful and touching place, offering a moment of reflection amid your exploration of the town.

Viewpoint Kirchbrucke bridge

  • 10m
From here, cross the Parish Bridge, one of the most beloved viewpoints in Zermatt. Gaze across to the snow-capped Matterhorn rising dramatically above rooftops—it’s a postcard come to life, and perhaps the most iconic sight in town.

Parish Church of St. Mauritius

  • 10m
The elegant Church of Saint Mauritius invites a brief visit inside. Modest in design yet rich in spiritual and cultural history, the church features lovely stained glass, quiet pews, and an atmosphere of timeless reverence.

Bronze Alphorn

  • 10m
Your next stop is the Bronze Alphorn Monument, celebrating the traditional Swiss musical instrument. Learn a bit about its role in Alpine culture as you admire the craftsmanship of this artistic tribute.

Matterhorn Museum - Zermatlantis (Pass by)

End your journey at the Matterhorn Museum, a treasure trove of stories about the mountain, its climbers, and the people of Zermatt. Clients are encouraged to explore this museum on their own, diving into interactive exhibits and discovering the soul of the village at their own pace.
