Description

When the Riffelhorn casts its dark shadow across the Riffelsee, evening is still a long way off.

But this is a magical moment in winter, known as the blue hour.

A calmness descends on the mountain; the ski pistes are far off.

Take a deep breath and continue walking: soon the magnificent panorama reveals itself once again, with the Matterhorn, Obergabelhorn and Weisshorn.

A winter's day of fairy-tale beauty, sure to linger long in the memory.Marked approx.
