The Matterhorn, Switzerland’s most iconic mountain, is the kind of peak that will make you love the adventures of Switzerland. With its near-perfect pyramid shape and dramatic ridges, it has become a symbol of the Swiss Alps. But what really made the Matterhorn famous is the adventure, history, and good old-fashioned danger it provides! In 1865, the first successful ascent ended in tragedy when four climbers fell to their deaths.
