A new half-hourly service that's started this winter means Zermatt is quicker to reach by train than ever before, the resort claims.

The new services introduce by The Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn increases the daily tally of trains on the route by a quarter, from 60 to 75, and Zermatt says that new connections made possible by the additional services means for guests arriving from Paris/Geneva and the French part of Switzerland should find their journey is 30 minutes shorter.

Along with the new services which began this week, new train compositions have also gone into operation. The new trains offer air conditioning, a new customer information system, level boarding with wide doors, wheelchair compartments and handicapped accessible toilets.
