Top Attractions in Zermatt
💡 Look for the grave of guides from the 1865 disaster—names are etched in stone. Best light for photos is 3–4pm in summer.
💡 Best in late afternoon for golden light on the wood. Check the blackened beams inside—soot from open fires preserved them for 400+ years.
💡 Skip Grünsee if short on time—it's the least scenic. Pack a picnic and swim in Leisee (water is cold but clear in July–August). Allow 3–4 hours.
💡 Go early morning before 9am to catch still water and avoid crowds. The trail is well-marked and takes about 20 minutes from the station.
💡 The free audio guide in English is worth it—focus on the 'Crystal of Bort' section with historical climbing gear and diaries.
