Zermatt in Switzerland had to wait a long time for a direct connection to Cervinia in Italy. Now it's here – but passing by has its price.

The last section from the Little Matterhorn to Testa Grigia cost around 61 million euros. In some ski resorts in the Alps, you can also cross borders with skis or snowboards – from the Milky Way to the ski beach. The direct luxury train from Switzerland to Italy is intended to boost tourism in Zermatt even further.
