Zermatt-Furi (via Winkelmatten) (Nr. 116)

Winkelmatten (chapel) - Moos - Furi

(Hiking time in reverse direction: approx. 45 min)

We recommend:

• Good footwear
• Hiking poles (optional)
• Warm winter clothing appropriate for the weather

When you take the road from the Winkelmatten quarter in the direction of Furi, you can see the snow-covered trees, deep blue sky and rising suddenly in their midst, the most famous rocky peak in the world - the Matterhorn. Don’t forget your camera!

• Plan every mountain tour carefully and adapt to participants’ fitness level as well as the weather and season.
• Weather conditions can change quickly in the mountains. Appropriate clothing is therefore essential, along with adequate supplies of food and water. In uncertain weather, turn back in good time.
• Inform others of planned route, and whenever possible avoid going alone.
• Do not leave the marked routes; do not venture onto glaciers without a mountain guide.
• It is forbidden to walk on the ski pistes.
• Please be considerate to other walkers and to plants and animals.

Tip: “Be searchable”. Equip yourself with an additional RECCO rescue reflector*. Whether summer or winter. Available in our Online-Shop or our information desk.
*The additional reflector does not replace an avalanche beacon.
