Swiss Activities Tip

If you're looking for a spot to take a particularly beautiful photo of the striking Matterhorn in Zermatt, it's best to go to the church bridge before sunrise. From this staircase you will experience a particularly impressive spectacle during sunrise. The sun first appears on the summit of the Matterhorn. Then it seems to move down the east face of the Matterhorn.
