Matterhorn Tour

The Matterhorn Tour with its eight stages, six valleys and three cultures (Swiss-German upper Valais, French-speaking central Valais and the Aosta valley in Italy) is a high altitude hike. Leading along more than twenty five summits over 4,000 m high, it passes through many mountain pastures boasting an unspoilt flora and fauna and stops in at many traditional villages where the joy of walking is present at every stage. From one valley to the next, this richly varied hike introduces you to a different history, culture and local architecture. But it is a hike that requires experience and endurance because it includes 3,000 metre passes and two glaciers.
