Zermatt Opens the New Blauherd Trail
The new trail starts at Blauherd and rides about 2.8 kilometers with an 280-meter elevation loss to Sunnegga. The route winds through alpine rocky terrain and combines natural trail sections with carefully designed flow elements. Banked turns, undulations, and playful terrain features create a fluid rhythm, while views of the Matterhorn open up time and again along the way.
A special highlight is the ride through a canyon. The narrow rock walls give the trail a unique character and make this section a truly memorable experience. The Blauherd Trail blends harmoniously into the high-alpine surroundings and offers a riding experience that is typical of Zermatt: close to nature, varied, and set against an unmistakable backdrop.
Given its character, the new trail is primarily aimed at advanced female mountain bikers. Anyone who has already ridden the popular Riffelberg Flow Trail and is looking for their next challenge will find the Blauherd Trail to be the ideal next step.
The official opening on July 11 is open to the public and invites riders to discover the new trail together with slopestyle pro Lucas Huppert.
