Zermatt five-lake trail

Several young people are helping to take care of the landscape at the Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch (SAJA) UNESCO World Heritage site . In the background you can see the magnificent backdrop of the north face of the Eiger.
A fantastic tour through the unique mountain landscape of Zermatt without any difficult ascents or descents. Ice bath included!

With its unique panoramic views of the mountains – featuring the iconic Matterhorn, of course – and authentic refreshment stops, this popular tour does not include any difficult ascents or descents. Are you daring enough to take an ice bath in the crystal-clear Grünsee lake before travelling back from Riffelalp on the Gornergrat Railway to Zermatt?
