Monte Rosa

Swiss Alps 2013

The Valais (or Pennine) Alps form an alpine paradise, accessible — literally — from your doorstep in Zermatt or from several other charming villages in the area. While ideal for technical alpine climbs, this area also is renowned for its incredible walks and hikes, whether in daytrips from a valley village or in multi-day hut-to-hut adventures.
