This is the view from the Gornergrat, the top station on the Gornergratbahn cogwheel railway,which opened in 1898 and is the highest open-air railway in Europe, climbing 1500m from the town of Zermatt. At just over 3,000m it offers a view of more than 20 four-thousand metre peaks, including the famous Matterhorn which can just be seen here above the left hand observatory dome, and also the Weisshorn.
