Why this trip
The Matterhorn from the south side: Cervinia lies on the Italian side of the best-known mountain in the Alps, and the view of the pyramid looks different from Zermatt. In winter the place is a ski area with a glacier link into Switzerland, in summer it attracts hikers and mountaineers. The Matterhorn Glacier Paradise is the cable car station above the town and takes you to great height, where glacier air and thin air challenge the body. From there paths lead down to alpine pastures and lakes, and multi-day tours are possible with huts.
The hotel to Piolet is ready for recovery. On this side of the Matterhorn it is often quieter than in Zermatt, and the paths run sunny on the south slope. If you want to see glaciers, plan a guided tour, because crevasses and ice demand experience and suitable equipment, which not every hiking group brings. For mountain hikers clear rules apply: check equipment, assess fitness honestly and use weather windows.
Milan, Livigno and Madonna di Campiglio are neighbours within reach. In the video call you discuss how many metres of ascent per day suit you.
