Description

Take the Matterhorn Express up to Schwarzsee. From here, the route leads directly under the Matterhorn down a gravel road to Stafel/power plant and over the Zmuttbach to the other side of the valley. Here begins the singletrail fun.

The trail starts relatively flat but changes its character repeatedly through challenging sections. In between, there is a short intense climb to overcome.

At the height of the hamlet of Zmutt, you reach the Yoyo Trail. Here, you have to tackle several tight corners and exposed sections, and towards the end, a few more, though strenuous, elevation meters await.
