Climbing the Breithorn (4164 m) (Summer and Winter) Under the guidance of a Zermatt guide, climbers will ascend as a roped party to the summit. The Klein Matterhorn cable way will take you to your starting point ( 3’870 m). The climb to the peak takes approximately two hours. Enjoy the unforgettable panoramic view of twenty-seven mountain peaks having more than 4’000 m. For this type of excursion, one must be in good physical condition as well as a good skier. No prior technical knowledge is necessary as the Breithorn is the easiest of all the mountain peak climbs above 4’000 m. Fly around the Matterhorn (Summer & Winter) Passengers depart from the Zermatt heliport (located north of the train station about a 10 minute walk). After flying around the Matterhorn, you will land on the glacier "Testa Grigia" (3’500 m in altitude) where you will have an aperitif with snacks. From "Testa Grigia" you can enjoy the magnificent ski slopes down to Zermatt. Gorge Adventure (Summer & Winter) Unique in Switzerland! Guided tour through the Gorner Gorge between Furi (1’865 m) and Zermatt (1’620 m) with its impressive rock formations (holes in the rock formed by glaciers, polished rock faces) pounded by enormous masses of rushing water. It is a unique spectacle of nature. The passage through the gorge is over a distance of about 1 km and takes approx. 3 - 4 hours. Your feet stay dry throughout the climb. Ski Race (Summer & Winter) We will organize a race for your group with all the necessary preparations (slopes, chronometers etc.) in the Gornergrat ski resort. A glass of mulled wine awaits you upon completion. Mountain bike Tour (Summer) We will organize a unique itinerary according to the wishes of your group. A possible excursion would be a trip to Sunnegga, where a picnic is awaiting you at the shore of the idyllic lake Leisee. Following this break, the group would "pack-up" and return over the typical mountain village Findeln to Zermatt. Walking with snowshoes (Winter) Experience an amazing winter walk through the scenic landscape of Zermatt.

Rustic night The cable car leads you to Furri where an entertaining fondue or raclette party is arranged in a rustic mountain restaurant.
