    Hi Neeraj,

    You can’t actually visit the Matterhorn, but you can visit Klein Matterhorn (“Glacier Paradise”), a nearby saddle between mountains.

    You will get a different answer depending on who you ask. Both excursions are wonderful. I personally prefer Gornergrat for its views and the option to hike part of the way back. Please see the below pages so you can decide for yourself:

    Whichever you choose, have fun!
