Just so cool, even though the weather didn't allow us to see the top we still had great views.

We had a fantastic day with a cloudless sky, so we were able to enjoy the mountain and glacier scenery. The preferred approach worked wonderfully. We already had a fantastic view of the Matterhorn on the ascent.Dawn

We took the train to Gornergrat on a rainy morning. When we arrived it was snowing! We did not get to see the Matterhorn due to the the cloud cover However it was an amazing experience!!! The earlier you go the less crowded it is. The train ride to Gornergrat provided exceptional views of Zermatt! Even though the weather was not ideal it was a wonderful experience
