Description
Those who do this hike dive directly from the forested mountain world into the village of Zermatt. The idyllic path leads through larch mixed forest. Parts of the path are over soft larch needles (caution slippery), but also past mini alpine meadows with "Gädi" (barn in the Zermatt dialect). Some small forest clearings invite you to linger and enjoy the fresh forest air.
