Zermatt is a car-free mountain resort town located in the canton of Valais in southern Switzerland. Situated at the foot of the iconic Matterhorn peak at an elevation of 1,620 meters, the town has developed from a rural farming village into an internationally renowned destination.
The town's cultural heritage is deeply rooted in mountaineering history, with the first ascent of the Matterhorn in 1865 marking a significant milestone in Alpine climbing. Today, Zermatt maintains its traditional Alpine character through its preserved historic buildings, including old wooden houses and barns, while also celebrating its mountain culture through various museums and cultural institutions.
The town's commitment to sustainability is demonstrated by its car-free status, with only electric vehicles permitted within its boundaries. Throughout the year, Zermatt serves as a gateway to both outdoor activities and cultural experiences, blending Swiss mountain traditions with contemporary mountain resort life.
