Biking or hiking in the Rothorn

The Unterrothorn (more simply known as the 'Rothorn') is one of Zermatt's many spectacular mountain peaks, and it is notable for both its stunning snowy ridges and the cutting-edge cable car that visitors ride to ascend the mountain. The Blauherd-Rothorn cable car can accommodate over 100 passengers while providing 360-degree views of Zermatt's magnificent mountaintops.

At Rothorn, which stands 3,103 meters above sea level, tourists can enjoy world-class restaurants, an outdoor sculpture display, and countless hiking routes. Rothorn is undoubtedly one of Zermatt's highest and greatest mountains, capable of taking any visitor's breath away.

You may take a gondola across Alpine pastures to Blauherd from there. Finally, at Blauherd, you may board a cutting-edge cable car with 100 seats in each cabin for a spectacular journey to the summit of Unterrothorn. On clear days, there's a restaurant on the top with views of the Matterhorn, glaciers, and Monte Rosa massif that are almost too magnificent to be real. However, Unterrothorn is also a mountain activity center. In the summer, people from this location start on strenuous excursions or use the slopes for paragliding. In the winter, the slopes begin just next to the higher station.
