Alpine Walking Holidays in Zermatt

Spend a week in the shadow of the Alps’ most photogenic mountain, the Matterhorn. Marvel at its perfect spiralling pyramid and seemingly un-climbable ridges.

The Matterhorn really does tower above Zermatt and is ever-present as you roam the high alpine pastures just below the snow line above this quintessential alpine resort which is steeped in alpine history.

The Matterhorn remains in view throughout the week as we walk through classic alpine scenery amongst wild flowers and shimmering mountain lakes surrounded by towering snowy peaks. Spend a night in a high alpine mountain hut and experience both the evening alpenglow and morning sunrise from high above sleepy Zermatt.

Zermatt’s comprehensive system of mountain transportation allows us to rise rapidly above the valley floor thereby enabling us to maximise the long summer days between the tree line and the snow fields where the true alpine experience awaits.
