Gornergrat Bahn – Winter

Anyone who wants to experience the world of the High Alps at its most beautiful will soon find there is no getting round the Gornergrat. The trains on Europe’s highest cog railway run every 24 minutes and take you from Zermatt up to the Gornergrat, a stunning viewing platform at 3089 m above sea level – all year round! Surrounded by 29 peaks over 4000 m high, including the majestic Matterhorn and Dufourspitze to say nothing of the third longest glacier in the Alps, the Gornergrat commands panoramic views worthy of all hyperbole.
