The view will stop you in your tracks

When it comes to beautiful winter scenery, Switzerland is hard to beat. We're looking at the Gornergrat railway with the peak of the Matterhorn in the background. One of the last great peaks of the Alps to be climbed by humans, the Matterhorn was finally summited in 1865, capping off the decade or so that's been called the 'golden age of alpinism.' The iconic peak is a daunting pyramid of stone and ice, towering just inside Switzerland's border with Italy.

The train goes from the village center in Zermatt (at an altitude of 5,200 feet) to Gornergrat (over 10,000 feet) in 33 minutes, offering incredible views along the way. The train debuted in 1898 as the world's first fully electric cog railway, connecting three existing hotels. The new attraction helped to make Zermatt a popular tourist destination, and by the time the railway began winter operations in 1928, this corner of the high Alps had become a glamorous year-round vacation hotspot.

铁路旅行中令你驻足的风景

说到美丽的冬季风光，瑞士是名列前茅，很难被击败的。 我们正在看到的是戈纳格拉特铁路，背景是马特洪峰。 马特洪峰是阿尔卑斯山最后一个人类需要攀登的高峰之一，它终于在1865年被人类登顶，结束了被称为"阿尔卑斯山黄金时代"的历史。 这座标志性的山峰是由石头和冰块组成的巨大“金字塔”，耸立在与意大利相邻的瑞士边境之内。

火车从采尔马特的村庄中心（海拔5200英尺）出发，经过33分钟即可到达戈尔内格拉特（海拔10,000英尺以上），沿途有着令人难以置信的美景。 这列火车于1898年首次亮相，是世界上第一条全电动的齿轨铁路，连接了三个现有的酒店。 这个新景点使采尔马特成为一个受欢迎的旅游胜地，当铁路于1928年开始冬季运营时，阿尔卑斯山的这个角落已成为全年迷人的度假热点。
