Although there are allegedly 70km of prepared winter hiking trails in Zermatt (according to the zermatt.ch website), there are a still signposts for a couple of hundred kilometers of summer hiking trails. It appeared that a few intrepid snowshoers had been walking on some of the summer trails. Given that it hadn't snowed all week, the trails the snowshoers had made had persisted and a few intrepid walkers had also started to follow them, which had created quite well packed and easy to follow additional hiking trails. I saw a signpost pointing up such a trail to Tiefenmatten, where I'd already visited a couple of times already. So I headed in that direction.
Eventually I popped out onto a prepared winter trail, which afforded excellent views of Zermatt.
