Keep a little mystery in your trip planning: Explorer Picture Mode shows a stylized version of every place instead of the real photo, so you can go by the description and reviews first and picture it your own way -- reveal the real photo any time by flipping the switch off, or just for one place at a time from its own page.

Overview

Changed

The Matterhorn, or Mont Cervin in French, is possibly the most famous mountain in the Alps for its spectacular pyramidal shape. Its summit, at 4,478 meters, is the fifth highest peak in the Alps. The mountain is located on the border between Switzerland and Italy. It is above the city of Zermatt, in the canton of Valais, to the northeast, and Breuil-Cervinia, in the Aosta Valley, to the south.
