Description

After Furi, the route climbs slightly through the forest, past the Zmutt reservoir to Stafelalp. It’s a perfect opportunity to become fully immersed in the imposing power of the north face of the Matterhorn.

 

From Stafelalp, the gravel path leads ever closer to the Matterhorn – an impressive backdrop. The gradient varies and some steep sections are a physical challenge without electric assistance.
