| The trip to Zermatt was the only time we took a train. They do not allow gas vehicles in the village, so you park your car several miles down the mountains and a train carries you to the village of Zermatt. I believe it was about $15 for the train ticket. The sun was beautiful that day and we spent several hours sitting and enjoying the heat of it. There are electric vehicles driving all around in Zermatt. Prices are high. It is a bit touristy, but well worth the trek. | ||||||||||||||||
