Matterhorn Alpine Crossing to Italy

The Matterhorn Alpine Crossing carries you by cable car over the glacier from Zermatt to Testa Grigia on the Italian side, the highest border crossing in the Alps you can make without skis. The ticket costs from around CHF 147.50 and includes the Glacier Palace. On the other side you can continue on to Cervinia for an Italian lunch and be back the same afternoon. Bring ID, since you really are crossing a border. On a clear day, this is the most impressive day trip in the whole area.
