The Matterhorn



Got to see the magnificent Matterhorn. We arrived by train to the very touristy area of Zermatt. We weaved our way thru town to hop on the funicular (a tram the goes vertical INSIDE the mountain). Arrived at the Sunnegga peak at about 7000 feet. Sat and had a hot chocolate before or decent down. A steep but easy hike back to town took about 2 hours. We had the view of the Matterhorn about 3/4 of the way down.
