Description
The Matterhorn is one of the most famous mountains in the Alps. It's a pyramidal-shaped peak standing at 4478 meters in height.
Every approaching route to the Matterhorn is a challenging one. So, no matter the way you choose, it won't be easy. It's super important to have a good fitness condition and some prior mountaineering experience.
Our starting point will be Zermatt. Once there, we will take the cable car to the Black Lake and continue on foot for 2 hours until we reach the Hörnli hut. The following day we'll start with an early breakfast at 4 AM. After a 10 minute walk, we will arrive to our trailhead to begin the ascent via the Hornli ridge.
If you want to join me on this 2-day adventure through the Matterhorn do not hesitate to contact me and get yourself ready for some mountain action!
And if you are willing to continue having the Alps under your feet for three more days, check out the Jungfrau ascent!

About the guide
Mountains have been a part of my life since childhood. I started doing more serious mountaineering expeditions at the end of high school after successfully completing all levels of mountain climbing courses. In the last 10 years, I have been at least on one expedition every year. I climbed in Argentina, Peru, Bolivia, the USA, Scotland, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, France, Swiss, Italy, Japan, Pakistan, Tibet and Nepal.
I completed my training as a mountaineering guide and became a full member of the IFMGA family.
I enjoy climbing both Slovenian and foreign mountains.
Some of my most unforgettable and also the most successful routes:
Tsoboje - Slovenian direct (2021)
Kang Ri - East pillar (2013)
Janak - Blue racer (2012)
K7 West - The dreamers of the golden caves (2011)
The route I climbed on K7 West was rewarded with Piolet d’or recognition for mountaineering achievements in the world.
If you want to climb the north face of Triglav (Slovenia’s highest mountain) or any other walls in Slovenia, please contact me. I also enjoy guiding ski trails in winter in the Julian Alps.
