ZERMATT

by JudyinPA - last update: Oct 10, 2002

THE MATTERHORN

A CITY OF HOTELS
A VERY SMALL VILLAGE WITH THE MOST TOURISTS I HAVE EVER SEEN. CAR FREE EXCEPT FOR SMALL ELECTRIC CARS. THEY DO OFFER AN INTERNET BAR WITH TWO VERY HEAVILY USED COMPUTERS. 5 SFR FOR 15 MINUTES. ALL THE SHOPPING YOU WOULD EVER LIKE TO SEE IN A SPORTS VILLAGE. THE CEMETERY IS AN INTERESTING VISIT SINCE MANY OF THE DEAD WERE KILLED CLIMBING OR IN AVALANCHES. THE GRAVES CAN BE QUITE OLD. THE TRAIN RIDE TO ZERMATT CAN BE OBTAINED IN BRIGG AND OTHER LOCATIONS. IT TAKES ABOUT 20 MINUTES. SEVERAL OF THE BUILDINGS ARE MORE THAN A FEW HUNDRED YEARS OLD AND CAN BE SEEN ALONG THE STREETS AND UP IN THE MEADOWS.

Pros:"GOING UP TO THE MATTERHORN IS WORTH IT ALL"
Cons:"IT CAN GET HECTIC IN TOWN"
In A Nutshell:"AS LONG AS THE WEATHER IS CLEAR THE MATTERHORN IS IN VIEW"

 It's about time that I go and have a look at the Matterhorn again. It's years since I've been to Zermatt. Hope you are doing well!

 Magnificent photography!! Makes me wish I was in the mountains again myself. I love the many pictures of Matterhorn, in my opinion one of the most beautiful mountains on our side of the ocean..Love the one with the bird and the Matterhorn in the back!!
