TOUR OF THE MATTERHORN, DAY 2

Bridget & Sue above Zinal

The Meid Pass (2790m)

Meadows below Meidhorn

Weisshorn & Meidhorn 

Le Touno

Weisshorn,  Matterhorn,  Dent Blanche 

Today's Route on this section of the Tour of the Matterhorn heads our of the Turtmantal and over the Meid Pass.  Some spectacular high Alpine mountains are seen on the walk. The North Ridge of the Weisshorn dominates the morning walk over lovely meadows up to the Meid Pass.  It was quite hazey for most of the day so no great photos today. It was very warm once again with plenty of sunshine.  Shortly after passing by the Weisshorn Hotel the trail to Zinal stretches across high Alpine meadows with constant views of big 4000m peaks. The Weisshorn,  Bishorn,  Zinal Rothorn,  Matterhorn and the Dent Blanche are all in view above Zinal.
