Zermatt. View from the Cable Car to the Klein Matterhorn

Cable Car to the Matterhorn glacier paradise (Taken from inside de Cabin, sorry for the low quality)
The highest cable car station in Europe (3,883 m), with its new restaurant, sets fresh standards in sustainable development. The views of the highest mountains in Italy, France and Switzerland are breathtaking. The ski area on the Theodul Glacier is open 365 days a year.The world's highest 3S cableway has been carrying visitors to the Matterhorn glacier paradise since 2018. The Matterhorn glacier ride, with gondolas created by the Pininfarina design studio, was developed in addition to the existing aerial tramway and offers a more comfortable and luxurious trip. It also increases the transport capacity by 2,000 guests per hour. The highlight of the modern cable car are its four “Crystal ride” cabins, which are coated with Swarovski crystals. During the nine-minute journey, the four special cabins offer a spectacular view: after three minutes, the cloudy glass bottom clears in a matter of seconds to provide a magnificent view of the glacier landscape.
