Wander through the village of Zermatt at 1620 m above sea level. The historic alleys contain over 30 heritage buildings, some more than 500 years old. The traditional wood and stone architecture reflects the life of the early Walser inhabitants. You’ll have time to discover the village and enjoy views of the surrounding four-thousanders.
