Vitaparcours between Zen Stecken and BlattenPhoto: Zermatt Tourismus, Zermatt Tourismus
The Vitaparcours of Zermatt – that is the jogging and fitness exercise area at the foot of the Matterhorn. In the green forest between the Zmuttbach and Furi, body exercises are performed. The route is varied, the exercise areas are located in the most beautiful spots, right in the mixed mountain forest. It goes over roots and stones, around rock blocks, over soft larch needle forest floor and up to the hamlet of Blatten.
- Terrain grippy and only slippery in very few places
- Pleasantly shady
Author’s recommendation
Why not make a quick detour to the Ricola Herb Garden at Blatten. Here it smells wonderfully of fresh herbs.
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.
