The Matterhorn Mountain stands all alone on the Swiss horizon, where outdoor enthusiasts can spend the day hiking, climbing, and camping. The most popular trek is along the 3,000-meter ridge called Gornergrat where a viewing platform offers amazing views of Matterhorn and the hills.

The biggest attraction is the Matterhorn Mountain area, which includes the Matterhorn glacier paradise ski resort, Rothorn, which is open all year round. The Matterhorn Museum details the history of Zermatt and its evolution into a holiday resort in the Alpines. Tours of the Zermatt village are also available as well as hiking around the lakes at the base of the mountains.
