We will meet your guides and the rest of the group in Randa at 2:30 p.m. From there, you’ll hike to Europahütte (Europa Hut) just above Randa, located at 2220 m altitude. It’s a fairly short hike, so you’ll have the rest of the afternoon and evening free to relax, chat, and get to know the rest of the group. Admire the panoramic views from the hut and enjoy the peace and quietness of the mountain valley.

Enjoy a delicious dinner at the Europa Hut.

Overnight in Europa Hut.

After breakfast at the hut, you will pack your bags and start today’s hike. The highlight of the trail is definitely the Charles Kuonen suspension bridge. At 494m long, it’s the longest hanging suspension bridge in the Alps! You’ll then continue to hike along the Europaweg balcony trail up to the Täschalp mountain hut, surrounded by glaciers and mountain peaks.

Dinner and overnight at Täschalp.

After breakfast at the hut, you will continue along the trail toward Zermatt, admiring uninterrupted views of the iconic mountain. In Zermatt you’ll step on the famous Five Lakes Trail and, in the late afternoon, arrive at the Ze Seewinjinu mountain hut with amazing views of the Matterhorn.

Dinner and overnight at the Ze Seewjinu hut.

On the final day, you will complete the Five Lakes Trail before descending to Zermatt. You will be back in Zermatt in time to catch the train back to the airport or continue your trip to another spot in Switzerland.
