This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Matterhorn Eagle Tournament. The 9-hole golf course is fit perfectly into the alpine landscape, with the majestic Matterhorn in constant view. Play is in the typical Scottish style, which means there are no manicured lawns or fairways in sight. Instead, golfers can expect to find themselves faced with a variety of obstacles such as cliffs, uneven grassy areas, rocks and marmot apartments. Even though the holes are a large 75 cm, putting is still a huge challenge. The 20th Matterhorn Eagle Tournament provides enjoyment for both players and spectators alike.

For those arriving from out of town it is recommended that hotels in Zermatt be booked well in advance.
