Zooom the Matterhorn

The interactive exhibition "Zooom the Matterhorn" brings visitors closer to the Matterhorn. The name says it all - the alpine landscape and the mountain of mountains can be discovered in three zoom stages. The exhibition is a fascinating addition to a visit on the Gornergrat and offers completely new perspectives on the impressive mountain world and makes it possible to experience the mountain up close.

Get right up close

In the first zooom stage, the view is finally directed towards the real Matterhorn and the surrounding alpine mountain world in all its dimensions and beauty. Periscopes allow you to zoom in and take a very close look. Graphic anchor points in the visitor's field of vision provide additional information.

The second stage transports visitors in an immersive 3D cinema to the most diverse scenarios showing the four seasons on the Matterhorn - from icy and snowy landscapes and tempestuous autumn storms to gentle flowering spring meadows and balmy summer evenings. Thanks to light projections and a detailed replica of the Matterhorn, visitors encounter the virtual environment as an almost real experience.

In the third zoom stage, you can choose between two virtual paragliding flights, the relaxed panoramic flight and the exciting, sporty flight. The virtual sightseeing flight with 3D glasses in floating armchairs focuses on the Matterhorn and its awesome alpine landscape.

The multimedia presentation is rounded off by a wealth of tangible information on historically significant events, on high alpine nature with its unique flora, fauna and glaciers, and on the history of the Gornergrat Bahn itself.
