Itinerary description
A walk of two halves, from the Gandegg-Hutte Lift we hiked on the Glacier walk (26) and then onto the ridge that leads to the Matterhorn Hörnlihutte at 3260m. We then back tracked along the ridge and picked up the lift at Schwarzsee down to Zermatt.
This is a high altitiute hike and will leave you feeling breathless on the up hill sections. It is a fantastic hike with superb views but must be done in good weather conditions, it would be easy to loose the trail in the cloud.
