Zermatt’s Climate Audio Trail leads high into the world of the glaciers and mountains. Audio guides reveal fascinating insights into the climate.
First step is to collect audio guides before taking the Gornergrat Bahn cog train to Rotenboden. From here, the trail leads across the Gorner glacier to the Monte Rosa Hut (2,883 m). The hike of about four hours allows plenty of time to listen to nine stories about the climate, each lasting about five minutes.
Rotenboden - Monte Rosa Hut (route across glacier marked with flags)
(Hiking time in reverse direction: approx. 3.5 h)
This hike is marked on the signposts as “Klimahörpfad”.
Note: The old trail will continue to be maintained, so hikers can enjoy a circular route.
We recommend for the Klimahörpfad (climate audio trail):
Note! The crossings to the glacier and the glacier passages are constantly changing and often very tricky. Good climbing boots and crampons are essential. Sticks or ice axes can be helpful and it's a good idea to take a rope. Good stamina is also important.
The route leads across the glacier. Recommended: book a mountain guide.
Instead of returning from the Monte Rosa hut on the same day, this modern hut has 120 beds for overnight stays.
Important! Difficulty level T4 – the route is difficult. Glacier traverse. Unsuitable for inexperienced mountain hikers. We recommend the services of a mountain guide. Return hiking time 6-7 hours.
