| The
Klein Matterhorn
The Klein Matterhorn is Europe's highest ski lift, if in fact the term ski lift accurately describes a massive cable car that begins at an altitude of almost 3,000 meters and ends at just under 4,000. Instead, a high mountain adventure vehicle or a tribute to the ingenuity of man might well be a more accurate description. Heck, one could make a story just out of how they built the thin. How many helicopter trips carried the pillions for example? Or how long did it take? You know, all that sort of thing. But this is not our job description here. It is in fact to inform you about the skiing, and that's just what we hope to do. On your arrival on the KM, and upon leaving the cable car, you will have a short walk through a tunnel before you emerge into a magnificent mountain world. Once you catch your breath (literally and metaphorically speaking) step into your skis and set out on a journey that is available to you regardless of the time of year. |
