Five Lake Trail, Zermatt Overview

Literally translating to the 5 lakes walk, this hike is one of the most popular among tourists. It makes for quite a beautiful hike through the mountains, providing some breathtaking views of the serene mountain lakes.

The hike takes you across five beautiful mountain lakes of Stellisee, Grindjisee, GrÙnsee, Moosjisee and Leisee. All 5 lakes are known for various different reasons. Such as the Grindjisee, where you'll find some of the most beautiful flowers that you won't find anywhere else, or Leisee, where tourists can stop for a swim in the summers (mind you, the water will still be quite chilly). The reflection of the Matterhorn is prominent in three of these lakes- the Stellisee, Grindjisee, and the Leisee, their pristine water providing almost a crystal clear mirror image of the mountain. At an elevation of roughly 2000 - 2500 metres, this walk through nature is a calming experience.
