Matterhorn mountain in Zermatt

So you want to see the famous icon of Toblerone in Switzerland. The Matterhorn. It’s the Mountain of Mountains. Shaped like a jagged tooth.

Disclaimer. Though it was the logo of Toblerone. But recently it changed. So it’s not like it was before. But same difference.

We went back to Interlaken OST to get our luggages that we store in the station lockers. Since Zermatt is on the opposite side. We decided to leave our luggages in Zermatt station too, since we are going to Zurich the same day. We actually went to the wrong train, cause we follow the 2 passengers since they are going to Zermatt too, Turned out that it was the wrong train, Good thing my friend noticed it.

Once we arrived in Zermatt, the first thing we look for is the luggage locker, which is easy to find, it’s just there’s no lift. Which is perfectly fine, as long as you don’t have heavy luggage.

We walk around the area, to take photos, and look for souvenirs, also we found a small church too.
We didn’t plan anything in Zermatt, just to see the Toblerone mountain. We tried to search how to get to the viewpoint, and this blog was really helpful. Although, you can hail taxi (small cab), if you see one. Or just walk. You can also take a bus, but it’s only 2 stops, and then, still, you will still walk the uphill part. It’s tiring, especially if it’s hot and don’t carry anything with you, we saw 2 tourist, who have their carry on luggages, and that just not good idea 😐 It will really tire you out.

Anyway, we did find where it is, it’s actually nice looking at the houses around. There’s some few people taking photo too of the Zermatt. And then there’s us, and our Toblerone chocolate :).

On our way back, we saw a taxi just around the area. My friend, ask him how much for the 2 of us, and he said it’s 12CHF up to the church. Where the shopping and food are. So not bad.

After we got our photos, it’s time to go down. Good thing my friend found a taxi, I was hesitant at first, cause of how much they might charge. But actually it’s not bad. I almost lost my bag too, cause I forgot it in the taxi when the driver drop us off. Good thing he didn’t leave yet, and took a break.



We’re starving, and almost dinner time. We went to one of the chocolate store, with Zermatt style. It’s actually good. 🙂 But I just had the spread.

We found one that has some of the local food that we can try.

And now time to go to Zurich.
