Swiss summer, like spring in the south, the rain, moist and fresh with a light fragrance of flowers in the air, diffuse in the lush green hills. Gently walk, related to Matt Hongfeng view above picture, quietly floating on the heart. Almost in the blink of an eye, immediately go to Switzerland to have a look on the Alps, saw Matt Matterhorn glacier and sea travel is determined in such a.

Walk for many people, the first reaction is very hard, is not ordinary people can complete the challenges. In fact, in Switzerland, hiking, camping ground conditions are very good, line mature and rich, so whether you are a "rookie" or master, do not have to worry about the road conditions and the degree of safety. But if you intend to go a few days long in the Alps, also can choose to live in the Mountain Inn, have different experience.

From the foot of the look up to heaven

Trip destination is Zermatt, which is located in a trend from southwest to northeast, long and narrow valley. Both sides of the ridge outside the East, South, West, are surrounded by giant glaciers. The valley is done, Matt is shaped like a Pyramid Hongfeng, towering into the clouds alone. Matt peak on both sides of the ridge, divided into Switzerland and Italy borders. From Geneva Airport and then take a train to Zermatt, on the road only 3 hours. With the train compartment sway gently fall asleep, a nap woke up, the Swiss mountain resort of Zermatt was in sight. A be in fine fig afternoon, sunny blue sky and snow will outline the shiny, what better than this more exciting and looking forward to?

Out from the train station, 10 minutes arrived at the train station east camp not far away. This is run by an old climber's camp is not big, but the sparrow may be small: bathroom, laundry room, a charging socket, drinking water and do not say, there was a mini mail room. Arrived, the old climber is not around, so close to such a note in the mail room door: "the new, choose your camp, come to see me at the camp; leave, license plate in my mailbox, a good!" In Switzerland, the sun like limpid transparent glass. In the old days the most popular shade of camp, at the moment it is sparse, it seems that people love the sun, just want to put all bathed in it, feel the holy the Alps.

Tents, and from all over the world "neighbors" have exchanged a few words, decided to relax to prepare for tomorrow's journey, so, while the sun has not yet downhill, to stroll around the beautiful Zermatt town.

Long and narrow valleyLong and narrow valley

Zermatt Town Main Street is not long, both sides are classic rustic Swiss wood house, every household windows are full of flowers. Zermatt is a famous green town. The town banned all kinds of motor vehicle to enter, the only transportation town is the environmental protection storage battery car. In the evening, the return of the hikers in groups of three and four, one water climbing boots, mountaineering bags, mountain sticks and ice axes, more game player, carrying skis and boards, professional fan children full. More consistent and they look on his face, presumably after a day of challenge has been quite tired hiker, but all smiles and pride -- that look, you in any one city can not see, it is not work achievement, accumulation is not wealth, but a natural happiness and satisfaction, is the nature of the human soul.

Walk around the town, starting to tomorrow mountaineering on good point, to one's heart's content to return to the camp. Daytime saw a tent not people camp, was alive. You know, to learn lessons, discussing the weather and the line to the return of the walker, and this is important "evening activities hiking camp". At the moment, the sun suddenly crashed into the mountain, thinking of coming tomorrow, this night, will be perturbed, dreaminess, excited.
