There’s no better way to showcase the most stunning 4,000-meter peaks of the Alps than by flying door-open in a helicopter, skimming past their rugged summits.
We had the privilege of soaring through the skies with AirZermatt, capturing the world-famous Matterhorn and the neighboring Monte Rosa massif from an entirely new perspective. Our breathtaking aerial footage was broadcast nationwide on major TV networks and online platforms the very same day, reaching millions of viewers during prime time.
The Matterhorn – A True Alpine Icon
Standing at 4,478 meters (14,692 feet), the Matterhorn is one of the most iconic and photographed mountains in the world. Its distinct pyramid-shaped peak has become a symbol of nature’s beauty, adventure, and Alpine heritage. Every year, climbers from around the globe attempt to conquer its challenging ascent, while visitors admire its ever-changing appearance from the valley below.
Adjacent to the Matterhorn, the Monte Rosa massif dominates the skyline, home to Dufourspitze (4,634 meters)—the highest peak in Switzerland. This glacier-covered giant is a breathtaking display of nature’s raw power, with deep blue ice fields, towering rock formations, and vast snow-covered landscapes.
