It was an excellent journey.. I was fascinated to learn about green energy that is used in a way that three trains going down generate enough energy for two trains to go up. The scenery was out of this world. Matterhorn stands so uniquely distinguished and beautiful from the rest but the rest of the mountain lines were also very beautiful. Also what I didn't know and luckily I did it that zoom matterhorn experience is actually included in the train ticket. Zoom matterhorn experience was fabulous too. It was a once in a life time grandeur experience that me and my Mrs had. Thankyou.

Thanks to the online ticket, I was able to board the train without having to wait or queue. A seat on the right-hand side of the train was perfect for the view of the Matterhorn and the magnificent landscape. There is something for everyone up at the top station, and there are also easily accessible viewpoints. The whole excursion was of course characterized by the good weather and the good view of the Matterhorn and the Gornegrat glacier.

Of course, the beautiful view from the Gornergrat and the closely timed trains. However, why do you have to take an analog ticket from a machine when you already have it on your cell phone? The friendly information staff were a great help though.

    The view from the Gornergrat is breathtaking! Train ride also with many beautiful views. Train was unfortunately very full! We were given priority on the uphill journey due to our booking.

    Surreal. The beauty is beyond human imagination. Any word used to describe the beauty of Swiss Alps is an understatement. The train ride was very comfortable.
