Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn (MGB)

In unhurried grandeur, the Matterhorn Gotthard Railway makes its way through the Alpine region of Zermatt – Visp/Brig-Andermatt - Disentis and from Andermatt to Göschenen.

It connects people and regions: Valais, Uri and Grisons. And the spectacle offered to passengers by the natural surroundings on around 144 km of track and at an altitude of over 3,300 metres is tremendous. Prominent mountains, primal valleys and ice-grey glacier tongues - it's as if the railway were part of nature. It takes you through 50 tunnels and protective galleries, over bizarre gorges and on to sheltered mountain lakes. The Matterhorn Gotthard Railway gives the visitor what they are looking for. Apart from experiencing nature and adventure, also sport, culture and fun along the way. There are no limits to the possibilities. The Matterhorn Gotthard Railway is not just a train, it's an experience.
