Highlights

  • Ascend the world-famous Matterhorn with an experienced guide with +100 summits
  • Witness breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding peaks

Description

Join me on a mesmerizing ascent to Hörnli Hut starting from Zermatt mid-morning! I've been on Matterhorn summit more than 100 times, and during 2 years in a row I was the guide with most summits on summer season.

The Matterhorn (4,478m) stands as one of the most renowned mountains globally. Its fame stems from various factors, including its legendary, nearly flawless symmetrical peak, the encircling glaciers, and the four distinguished ridges dividing its steep faces.

On day 1 we will leave Zermatt mid-morning. Ascend to the hut from the Schwarzsee station (2583m), which we reach using the lift system. We will spend the night at Hörnli Hut (3260m). Day 2 is the summit push, starting early morning from the hut, and going down to Zermatt in the afternoon.

If you've already conquered a notable array of 4,000-meter peaks, possess proficiency in navigating rock and ice terrain, and are well acclimatized, it's time to set sights on the grand challenge of the Matterhorn. While it remains a mountain of dreams for many, for you, it could soon become a thrilling reality.

This guided Matterhorn ascent is recommended between mid-July and mid-September when weather conditions are most favorable for a safe and successful climb.

Don't hesitate to reach out if you're intrigued by this captivating adventure. I'd be delighted to accompany you and share in the incredible vistas of the Alps.

Mountain Guide

I started climbing at the age of 12 with the Club Andino in Argentina. From these first weekends in the mountains I felt the passion growing in me, and knew from this start what I would do later on. The dream came true, I became a Montain Guide. Ever since I have been traveling around the world, always searching for mountains to climb; continuously surprised by sunsets and unique sunrises… For many years I guided arrownd Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre range, south of my beloved Patagonia. Now a days my playgrownd is moslty in the heart of the Alps and Patagonia. I try to make each experience special for my clients, adapting to your level and sharing this unique feeling. Come, live big!

Oscar

Jeremias guided my wife and I to the top of the Matterhorn on the final day of our honeymoon. The experience was unforgettable and neither of us could have made it without Jere. He gave us a brilliant pre-climb briefing and helped us plan our gear. On the day there were tricky conditions but Jere made sure we felt safe, and supported whilst still pushing us to make sure we submitted. We enjoyed so much we have since climbed together in Argentina and Spain. Top human, top friend… Top Mountain Guide.
