Blauherd

Monday - The weather was much improved, so I decided to opt for one of the more scenic trails, from the cablecar station at Blauherd to the restaurant at Fluhalp.

I started the day by getting a funicular train and two cablecars from Zermatt (1,620m) all the way up to Rothorn (3,103m). It was blowing a gale and freezing cold at Rothorn (my thermometer was showing -12C), so I was glad I wasn't actually doing any walking up there.

I swiftly retreated to the cablecar and went back down to Blauherd (2,571m) to start my walk. The photo shows the trail stretching off into the distance as I left Blauherd. There was no wind and it felt significantly less cold, although the clouds in the distance looked a little menacing.
