The Matterhorn is located in the Swiss-Italian Alps. It can be reached from Zeamatt, Switzerland as Breuil/Cervinia, Italy. It is on the European Plate. The canton of Valois is especially known for having mountains, ski resorts and wine. The Matterhorn is one of the most popular mountains in the Alps. A number of its peaks exceed 6000m and scenic glaciers, waterfalls, valleys, panoramas, and small lakes are commonplace here. In the Upper, German-speaking part of the canton the Aletsch Glacier descends like a great highway of ice from the base of some of the Alps' highest summits. Although the Matterhorn is not technically difficult to climb, it is a strenuous climb and not appropriate for novices. The rating is about 5.4-5.5. Inexperienced climbers should not attempt and ascent at Matterhorn as their first mountain. |
