Gornergrat Private Full Day Hiking Tour
Overview
Join us for a full day of adventure and hike one of the most stunning trails in Zermatt!
Our journey will start by hopping on the iconic Gornergrat cogwheel train to Gornergrat ridge. During this 45min trip, you will be able to enjoy the beautiful view offered by the 4000m peak around Zermatt including the majestic Matterhorn. Once at the summit, an easy short loop will bring you to breathtaking views of the valley, mountains and glacier surrounding the Gornergrat ridge.
After enjoying the views and taking many memorable pictures, we will start our hike down to the Riffelsee.
The Riffelsee is an amazing alpine lake that captures the imagination and on a good day offers the mirror reflection of the Matterhorn on its surface.
We offer this tour only as a private group and with a flexible 4 to 6h time to allow us to tailor fit this experience to your wish. This area has a lot of different trails and possibilities, allowing you to adapt the tour to your fitness and desire.
