In the area of the most famous mountain of the Pennine Alps



In the summer 2007, we came to Zermatt to spend our holidays in the mountains. We were hiking in the area near the Riffelsee and had a view toward
the famous "Horn" where our daughter Rahel Maria was climbing in the summer 2003.

We saw the Matterhorn reflected in the Riffelsee when walking along the sea. We had to go out of our way to find nice wildflowers and colourful rocks.
