Inspiration for trips in Wallis
The Valais Alps offer countless beautiful hikes and mountain ascents. The highest peak of the Valais Alps is Dufourspitze (4,634 m above sea level), but the biggest attraction of the whole mountain range is the beautiful Matterhorn mountain (4,478 m above sea level). Especially around Zermatt, you can make hiking easier with a number of trains and cable cars.
