Zermatt is most known for its proximity to the Matterhorn. You can see it from just about everywhere in the village. Although it may not be the highest peak around, it is undoubtedly the most dramatic. From the town, the summit is almost pyramidal and has inspired many artists, climbers, filmmakers, even chocolatiers. Zermatt is also famous for its ski resort and high glaciers, allowing visitors to ski and snowboard 365 days a year.
