Matterhorn Circuit
Key information: Matterhorn Circuit 
- The Matterhorn: a mountain that everyone knows - we will avoid that lazy word "iconic".
- A spectacular circuit of the massif of which the great mountain is the crown. Superb views: peaks, lakes, glaciers, high pastures and timeless villages.
- Crossing some major ski areas is a bit of a spoiler.
