Matterhorn is one of the most iconic peaks in the Alps, located on the border between Switzerland and Italy, near the mountain resort of Zermatt. Its sharply pyramidal shape makes it one of the most recognizable mountains in the world and a symbol of the Swiss Alps.
Rising to 4,478 meters (14,692 ft) above sea level, the Matterhorn is not the highest peak in the Alps, but it is among the most famous due to its dramatic ridgelines and steep faces. First successfully ascended in 1865, the mountain has since become a classic objective for experienced climbers and a major attraction for visitors exploring the alpine region.
