    A grateful three-thousand-meter summit

      The Oberrothorn is the perfect training mountain and a great introduction to the higher elevations of our Alps. The brave can hike up the hilltop from the valley floor, although it is more comfortable from Sunegga. 1200 m separate you up to the top and at the latest after the lake it goes up steeply. Always with the Matterhorn behind you - watching over everything and always worth looking back. But the whole surrounding mountain arena knows how to inspire. The Monte Rosa massif, the Allantoinhorn and whatever their name is. Within reach and yet the view can be reached on simple paths without equipment.

        This is one of the best viewing mountains I know, and despite its great height, you can hike up it without climbing!
