Amazing!! Many options available on the ride up and down to the Gomergrat. Check the weather ahead of time. We had pretty good views of the Matterhorn with a few clouds moving through. Full review by Cindy J

Hi , i would like to ask if i coming from Gornergrat station but unfortunately i've missed the Rotenboden station , and arrived at Riffelalp Station, can i still hop on Gornergrat direction train and get down at Rotenboden from Riffelalp? I'm asking this question because i was told that the ticket is a one way ticket where you cant alight at any station you wish , if i want to go back to Rotenboden , i need to purchase a new ticket at Zermatt , and it will be Zermatt - Rotenboden, i find it so funny as the radio announcement wasnt stated the same as i was being told. Maybe you should update your announcement accordingly.

ya, you are right , i should have verified it on the spot with the ticket agent ...
Where do you catch the train up, can I prebook, and anything else we should know or suggestions. Would this be a better morning/lunch trip or an afternoon/dinner trip? What weather will we most likely see? We will be staying at the Jagerhoff in Zermatt from May19-22, 2020, tues-Friday.

The train leaves from the station diagonally opposite the Zermatt main station. The journey is about 45 mins to an hour to get to the top. Prices vary. After 12 midday it’s significantly cheaper. My suggestion would be to go after 12, have lunch up there and you’ll have plenty of time to explore till sunset. You can buy tickets on the train if you’re traveling to Zermatt by train or you can buy it at the station on the day of your travel.
My bad with the previous question! May i ask again Planned to go to Gornergrat during the X mas - Newyear 2019, may i ask if the treking between stations safe for kids and is it good enough track worth carrying a rental sledge for a 10 yo kid? Or to find a rental sledge up there between train stations(if any) Nube
