The Matterhorn Alpine Crossing is a once-in-a-generation project that was officially opened last summer when the Matterhorn Glacier Ride II 3S cableway went into operation on 1 July 2023. The more than 80-year-old vision of a cableway crossing over the Alps between Zermatt and Cervinia had become a reality. This enthralling gondola ride through unique natural surroundings around the Matterhorn is extremely popular, with 40,000 passengers taking the Matterhorn Glacier Ride II in its seven months of operation during the first two summer seasons as an excursion trip. The performance of the innovative premium product has clearly met all expectations and there has been considerable sustained international interest in the latest travel option.
