Climbing the Matterhorn (4'478m) via the Hörnli Ridge, Switzerland

At 4,478 metres, the majestic Matterhorn - certainly the most famous mountain in Europe - looms over the breathtaking Alpine panorama. This Switzerland landmark is at the border of the western Swiss canton of Valais between Zermatt and the Italian resort of Breuil-Cervinia. July 2022.

I've seen so many climbers post comments saying that part with the chain near the top of the fixed ropes is the hardest part. Like by the time you get to that point your legs are pretty wobbly and that's a real challenge before the climb up the roof to the top.

maybe stupid question.. there are parts where your guide makes you rappel down using the rope hes carrying. How did he go down after you?

At one or two locations by rapelling himself, at the other locations climbing down
