The beautiful town of Zermatt is located on the Swiss border with Italy, in the canton of Valais. It lies at the foot of the Matterhorn Mountain, which stands at a height of 4478 metres. With about 300 sunny days a year, Zermatt is perfect for everyone who wants to enjoy a top-class ski holiday in the highest area of the Alps. Since 1947, only electric cars and buses without a combustion engine are allowed to drive in the town.
