Travelling to Zermatt

Here’s the easiest way to get to Zermatt

The village of Zermatt is car-free. We recommend traveling by public transport. Thanks to excellent connections, you can comfortably reach Zermatt by train while enjoying the breathtaking Alpine scenery along the way. The convenient location of the Gornergrat Railway valley station, directly opposite the main train station, makes it easy for you to access even more stunning views.

Due to construction work on the railway, replacement buses will run as scheduled between Visp and Täsch, Fiesch and Oberwald, and Andermatt and Disentis. Please allow sufficient time for your journey. Trains will resume on the entire route starting November 10. You can find all connections at www.sbb.ch.

Easy Connections

The Swiss Federal Railways will take you comfortably to Visp. From there, the picturesque journey continues with the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn, leading you directly to the center of Zermatt.

On sbb.ch, you can find all connections and purchase tickets from any train station in Switzerland to Zermatt.
