Off to new adventures on the peak of limitless possibilities, the Matterhorn glacier paradise. The Matterhorn glacier ride takes you to the highest mountain station in Europe, at 3,883 meters above sea level. Do you want to go even higher? Then visit the viewing platform from where you can enjoy a 360° panoramic view of 38 Alpine giants. A tour through the fascinating world of ice and snow in the Glacier Palace will make your trip an incomparable experience!

Viewing platform

A passenger lift takes you up to the highest viewing platform in the Alps at 3,883 meters above sea level. The 360° panorama gives you a view of 38 four-thousanders and 14 glaciers in the French, Italian and Swiss Alps. Find Mont Blanc - the highest mountain in Europe - or the Jungfrau, which shines in all its beauty in the distance.

Glacier Palace

Sparkling ice crystals and dazzling ice sculptures enchant visitors to the Glacier Palace. With a passenger lift you descend 15 meters below the earth's surface and land in a fairytale palace in the middle of eternal ice. Walk through a crevasse or glide down the ice slide before relaxing on an ice bench covered in cozy furs. For explorers big and small!

Matterhorn glacier paradise

Matterhorn glacier paradise, that is a whole world of adventure. From here, mountaineers and hikers, accompanied by mountain guides, set out to conquer their first 4000-meter peak, the Breithorn (4,164 m), in a 2.5 hour ascent over the eternal ice. Sometimes the foresight from the viewing platform is so good that you even think you can see the Mediterranean Sea. The Mont Blanc (4,810 m) in France, the highest mountain in the Alps, seems close enough to touch. And the summit of Gran Paradiso (4,061 m), the highest mountain in Italy, can often be seen. The air is thin. And here is also the summit of the international ski area, which is open 365 days a year. It is the largest summer ski area in Europe.
