Matterhorn

The Matterhorn is a classic peak, a sharp, isolated rock pyramid, the town of Zermatt is beneath the mountain's north face.


This is one of the most frequently climbed mountains in the world, and there are now fixed ropes, ladders, and huts along the easiest routes to the summit but do not be fooled by this as much of the climb still requires much technical expertise and thus carries one of the highest mountain death rates, the largest danger is not the mountain but the large amount of climbers that you will meet on the mountain, the Matterhorn is a mountain that should never be underestimated!
