mountaineers' cemetery印象
-
it was kind of sad to see so many people who tried to conquer the mountains died out there. it is a very good place to keep memory of people who gave up their lives in zermatt's mountains. i saw some whole family's cemetery there and felt sorry.

Lying by the river facing the Matterhorn is this pretty emotional place where hundreds lie and it was amazing to see that the locals light a candle by each grave everyday... even though they don't know these people but they are appreciative of what they wanted to achieve

We always visit the cemetery when in Zermatt. As a climber and hiker I know what drew these climbers to Zermatt and what drove them to possibly climb beyond their abilities.A sad sad place but do visit and read the gravestones.

You cannot visit Zermatt without visiting here. Relective and put life into perspective in the most beautiful and natural seeing. What a place to be put to rest.

well maintained and very moving to see how many from around the world have tackled the mountain range. Do go and find the Ulrich Inderbinnen memorial in the old part of the town. He is the oldest chap to have scaled the Matterhorn at the ripe age of 90, I met him at the grand age of 103 but sadly he has passed away- a true inspiration.

This was a surprise. The very great care with which the mountaineer's cemetery has been formed and is so well maintained, shows the reverence which which the pursuit is regarded. Finding an Australian compatriot was another surprise, and so many were quite young, and from many corners of the globe. The adjacent local cemetery is also very beautiful.

A touching and tranquil spot just off the main street. It was quite poigniant to see the breath of people from all over the world who have been laid to rest here and the care taken to keep all areas accessible even with deep snow.Worth a visit if only for a few respectful minutes

We walked around the graves reading the deceased's exploits and mode of death. A sobering but interesting insight into the history of climbing the Matterhorn.
-
This is a gem right in central Zermatt memorializing those who climbed the Matterhorn; a spot for those interested in history not to miss.

The cemetery is located near to the church, about 10 minutes walk from the train station. It is a place of burial for men and women who died climbing the various mountains in the Alps. The headstones were inscribed with encouraging and loving words. It was a moving experience.
