Matterhorn Hornli Ridge Climb

 

Matterhorn Hornli Ridge Climb

 

The Route


Requisite Experience 

This climb is for experienced alpine rock climbers.  Participants should move well on 4th and 5th class rock and be comfortable with ice axes and crampons.  Having experience with exposed rock terrain (think hundreds to thousands of feet of air below you) and being able to follow rock climbing up to 5.8 difficulty is a big advantage.

While the climbing is technically not very difficult, the Hornli Ridge route of the Matterhorn is a long and demanding climb.  Excellent fitness, acclimatization and experience with continuous movement in exposed alpine terrain is essential for success on the Matterhorn.  We recommend adding on a few days of less consequential climbing to acclimatize and brush up on your movement and skills before the climb.
