On The Matterhorn Trail



We took the (expensive) tram up to Schwarzsee Station and then followed the six-mile Matterhorn trail down from above treeline to Zermatt.


Morning on the Matterhorn



The lower tram to Schwarzsee Station



Can't get enough of this view.



Rush hour in Zermatt. Check out the pride and joy on the face of the second sheepherder.

The lower ridge.









Sydney Bean heading down to Stafel station. The great thing about hiking in Zermatt are the restaurants every few miles along the trail. Great motivation for tired young legs.



More cow bell.






Zmutt is no dog... yuck yuck yuck



Lunch in Zmutt -- A plate of brautwurt and potatos shared between the four of us...
