Description

Either way, it promises a thrilling hike.
The view from the Ritzengrat ridge into the small and secluded Tufterkumme valley may reveal a surprise or two - such as a sighting of chamois. Impressive views of the Matterhorn, Weisshorn and other dramatic peaks. equipment We recommend: * Good footwear * Hiking poles (optional) # Clothing suitable for the weather (always carry a waterproof) * Binoculars
