About this picture
We spent our last money for a taxi taking us into Zermatt, a small tourist hotspot in the swiss alps. My friends and I walked about half an hour to sneak onto the last train to the Riffelsee. Up there it was bloody cold with temperatures below zero. We managed to sleep there anyway and it was totally worth it. When the sun started rising the clouds slowly disappeared and with the water still quiet the top of the Matterhorn got lit up step by step. The reflection in the Riffelsee made it the perfect shot. Highly recommended experience!

More Tips on Riffelsee from Travelers
Riffelsee
- We had to get up at 4:30 in the morning so we wouldn’t miss the sunrise at the Riffelsee. On the way down we passed this small lake and Roman went to take some pictures. In the end he was so happy, he just had to jump. But where is Roman now? The only thing that was left of him was his reflection.
