Zermatt began to gain prominence as a tourist Destination in the mid-19th century, with the development of mountaineering as a popular activity. In 1865, the first ascent of the Matterhorn, led by Edward Whymper, brought international attention to the region. However, this achievement was marred by tragedy when four members of the climbing party fell to their deaths during the descent.

Since then, Zermatt has continued to attract visitors from around the world, drawn by its breathtaking scenery and outdoor activities. The introduction of railways in the late 19th century further facilitated tourism, making Zermatt easily accessible to travelers. Today, it remains a premier destination for skiing, mountaineering, and hiking, while also offering a range of cultural experiences and luxury amenities for visitors to enjoy. Zermatt’s charm is further enhanced by its designation as a car-free village, which contributes to its picturesque allure.

策馬特位於瑞士瓦萊州，擁有悠久的歷史，可以追溯到遠古時代。該地區最初由講德語的瓦爾塞人居住，其名稱來自“zur Matt”，意為“草甸地”。

19世紀中葉，隨著登山運動成為一項流行活動，策馬特開始成為一個著名的旅遊目的地。1865年，由愛德華·惠姆珀 (Edward Whymper) 率領的馬特洪峰 (Matterhorn) 首次登頂，使該地區引起國際關注。然而，這項成就卻因悲劇蒙上陰影，登山隊中有四名成員在下降過程中不幸喪生。

從那時起，策馬特憑藉其令人嘆為觀止的風景和戶外活動，繼續吸引來自世界各地的遊客。19世紀末鐵路的引入進一步促進了旅遊業的發展，使採爾馬特更容易讓旅客抵達。如今，它仍然是滑雪、登山和徒步旅行的首選目的地，同時也為遊客提供一系列文化體驗和奢華設施。策馬特還是一個無車村莊，這更增添了其魅力。
