It’s no secret that Zermatt is one of the best destinations in Switzerland for outdoor activities.
While most attractions in Zermatt require a train, gondola, or a funnicular to reach them, you can easily walk to Gorner Gorge on foot.
The Gorner Gorge was built in 1886-1887 by two German families so tourists could access this glacier-carved canyon.
During our visit, we only saw a handful of people at the gorge which was so nice after battling crowds at Gornergrat and 5 Lakes Trail.
