This route is not technically challenging, but the mountain views are incredible.
From Zermatt, the funicular takes you to Sunnegga, where a cable car will then take you on to Blauherd. After Blauherd, the gravel path goes down to Grünsee.
After Grünsee, the trail climbs up to Riffelboden and then down to Riffelalp.
After Riffelalp, you can either ride back along the gravel path to Furi or follow the Gornergrat Classic route (no. 1).
The more challenging version starts at Riffelalp and goes up to Blauherd.
Blauherd - Grünsee - Riffelboden - Riffelalp
Variant in reverse direction: Riffelalp - Riffelboden - Grünsee - Blauherd

Tip: “Be searchable”. Equip yourself with an additional RECCO rescue reflector*. Whether summer or winter. Available in our Online-Shop or our information desk.
