Matterhorn by Helicopter
The Matterhorn is Switzerland's most photographed mountain, a near-symmetrical pyramid of rock rising above Zermatt on the border with Italy. Its distinctive shape, carved by glaciers from multiple sides, has made it the country's most recognizable peak.
Seeing it by helicopter
This is the longest scenic flight this site offers from Bern, crossing a wide stretch of the Swiss Alps to reach the Matterhorn itself -- a very different trip from the shorter flights that stay closer to Bern and the Bernese Oberland.

Good to know
- •This is a notably longer flight than the Bernese Oberland routes, given the distance from Bern to the Matterhorn -- check the duration before booking if time is tight.
- •The mountain's famous pyramid shape is clearest from angles that show more than one face at once, which a circling flight gives you rather than a single flyby.
- •Zermatt itself, at the Matterhorn's base, is a car-free town reachable only by train or cable car -- the helicopter view is a genuinely different way to see the area than arriving on the ground.
Is the Matterhorn flight the same length as other Bern helicopter tours?
No -- it's the longest scenic flight this site offers from Bern, since the Matterhorn sits much further away near Zermatt on the Italian border, well beyond the closer Bernese Oberland peaks.
