You can travel from London to Zermatt on Eurostar, TGV Lyria, SBB and SNCF trains. When you search for times and tickets, we might also show you some other options with multiple connections or operators if they're available.

Reaching the car-free village of Zermatt from the UK in 2026 is a multi-step "High-Fidelity" journey that typically starts with a flight or a high-speed train. The most efficient route is to fly from a major UK airport (like LHR, LGW, or MAN) to Geneva (GVA) or Zurich (ZRH). From the airport, you board a Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) train to Visp, where you transfer to the narrow-gauge Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn for the final, spectacular 70-minute climb into Zermatt. Alternatively, for a "High-Fidelity" flight-free experience, you can take the Eurostar from London St Pancras to Paris, transfer to a TGV Lyria headed for Basel or Lausanne, and then continue via Visp. The total train journey from London takes roughly 10 to 12 hours. Because Zermatt is car-free, if you choose to drive from the UK, you must park your vehicle in a high-fidelity secure garage in the nearby town of Täsch and take the 12-minute "Zermatt Shuttle" train for the final leg of the trip.
