Historic Center of Zermatt

Highlight • Historical Site

Zermatt, the village beneath the most famous mountain in the world. The fact that the place at the foot of the Matterhorn is car-free makes it even more idyllic. It's worth getting off your bike and exploring the streets.

Especially when climbing to Zermatt, it is advisable to avoid the tunnel by taking the old road. It is safer and more beautiful.

Saas-Balen Church

Highlight • Religious Site

Already striking due to its floor plan, the altar structure is really overwhelming when entering the church! In terms of size, it's almost a chapel with very few seats, but with a dominant altar 😮
