Little Matterhorn - Europe's highest viewing platform
The observation deck atop the Klein-Matterhorn (meaning 'Little' Matterhorn) has exceptional views from 3885m/12,780ft. This is the highest lift-serviced summit in Europe and is best visited in fine weather. The cable car soars 1,000 feet above the ice and snow at some points. Views over much of Switzerland, deep into Italy and even to France (Mont Blanc - 68km away) are amazing. On a clear day it is possible to see forty peaks over 4000 metres elevation and 200km to the Maritime Alps close to the Mediterranean Sea. As a comparison, to stand at the top you are higher than all the highest mountains in Austria and New Zealand.
