Cervinia Alpine crossing

 

Alpine Crossing Sightseeing Route Zermatt / Cervinia

The 3S lift will be extended in Spring 2023 via an ‘Alpine Crossing’ to Testa Grigia and the Cervinia ski area. The construction of a new 3S cable car from the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise (Klein Matterhorn) to Testa Grigia completes the continuous cable car link between Switzerland and Italy and makes it possible to cross the Alps without skis. The one-hour journey offers stunning views from Switzerland to Italy, or vice versa, and covers over 4,000 metres of altitude, making it the cable car link with the greatest altitude difference in Europe.
