ZOOOM the Matterhorn – See. Feel. Marvel.
The interactive exibition at Gornergrat, which shows the Matterhorn and its surrounding alpine world in all dimensions, will fascinate both young and old and is even a great place to visit on the Gornergrat when the weather is not so good. All tickets which have the Gornergrat as their start or end station include admission to the ZOOOM exhibition.
In the interactive exibition, visitors get closer to the Matterhorn in three zoom stages.
The three Zooom levels
Zooom Stage 1: With periscopes right up close to the ‘Horu’ (the locals’ name for the Matterhorn)
In the first stage, the view is directed towards the real Matterhorn and the surrounding alpine world in all its dimensions and beauty. Periscopes allow you to get very close to everything. Graphic anchor points in the visitors' field of vision provide additional information on the respective topic.
Zooom Stage 2 : Immersive 3D cinema
The second stage takes visitors on a journey through diverse scenarios in all four seasons on the Matterhorn - from icy winds, snowy landscapes and autumn storms to fresh spring landscapes and balmy summer evenings. Thanks to light projections from three sides and a detailed, true-to-life replica of the Matterhorn, visitors experience the virtual environment as an almost real experience in which they themselves are taking part.
Zooom Stage 3: Paraglider flights
In the third stage visitors can choose between two virtual paragliding flights: the relaxed, panoramic flight and the more exhilarating, sporty flight. The focus of the virtual sightseeing flight with 3D glasses in floating armchairs is always the Matterhorn and the awesome alpine landscape that surrounds it.
The multimedia presentation is rounded off with significant and tangible information on historically important events, high alpine nature with its unique flora, fauna and its glaciers and on the history of the Gornergrat Bahn. The exhibition is a fascinating addition for any visit to the Gornergrat and offers brand-new perspectives on the impressive mountain world and shows it in close-up.
