    Is it possible to visit Gornergrat and Kleine Matterhorn (from Zermatt) in same day without rush? Is there any transportation from Gornergrat to Kleine Matterhorn ?
    Also, is it possible to visit Grindelwald First and Jungfraujoch in the same day?
    Thank you

    Hi Andria 9678,

    The answer is yes to both questions, provided that you don’t start your day too late. You don’t need transportation normally, as it’s a 20 minute walk in Zermatt to get from one station to the other. There are small buses too. Apart from this, there is also a short cut gondola connection Furi on the Klein Matterhorn route to Riffelberg on the Gornergrat route. So that makes it even quicker to visit both, but it only operates in July and August and November to April.

    Yes. I mean whether there is any link (gondola or cable car) from Gornergrat to Kleine Matterhorn. I assume there is, but via Fury as transit hub? But it doesnt operate on June, does it?

    Hi Andria 9678. No, there’s no direct connection between Gornergrat and Klein Matterhorn, other than the shortcut available in July/August mentioned by Arno. You’ll have to travel back to the Gornergrat valley station and then transfer to the cable car to Furi: myswissalps.com/kleinm atterhorn/gettingthere. That one’s open in June: you can check the Klein Matterhorn timetable using the links under “More on other websites” on the page I just mentioned.
