Five lakes in five hours, and always the Matterhorn in sight - this hike from Blauherd to Sunnegga gives magnificent views of this famous Swiss landmark, with some of the best from Lake Stelli and the glacier. Take the mountain railway to the Gornergrat (3,089 m), or the cable car to the Kleine Matterhorn, Europe's highest cable car station, at 3,883 m.
