The Gornergrat, established in 1898 |
| The Gornergrat has an observation deck that is open all year ’round and is built more than 3 thousand meters high. Zermatt is by the way, surrounded by 29 four thousand meter mountains and offers a great view of most. In summer months the Gornergrat has the largest open air cog railroad and climbs the Gornergrat piste many times each day. The Matterhorn is always in full view, and the cog railway goes through many different areas all exciting on its way to the top.Zermatt Apartments Zermatt maybe has more apartments than hotels.
