Description
The Riffelberg Trail can be reached on the Gornergrat Bahn from Zermatt or the Riffelberg Express from Furi. It’s also the ideal route back after completing the “Gornergrat Classic (No. 1)” flagship trail. After a few hundred metres, it goes over the tunnel next to the Gornergrat Bahn before heading down a flowy section next to the Riffelalp meadows. The trail then briefly heads along the gravel road. There’s time to relax a bit at this point and take in the breathtaking view of the Matterhorn. Shortly after the Riffelalp, you reach the last section, perfectly integrated into its natural surroundings. Those who like it flowy can take a cautious approach to the steep bends, while those who prefer more action can take off on the jumps. At the end of the trail, you can head back up again on the Riffelberg Express or connect to the Moos Trail leading to Zermatt.
