Five Lakes Walk / 5-Seenweg loop. Sunnegga Express funicular, Zermatt, Alps, Switzerland, Europe.

From Zermatt, hike the Five Lakes Trail from Sunnegga Express funicular, in the Pennine Alps, Switzerland, Europe. Although especially nice for families, the 5-Seenweg loop walk is aesthetically marred with ski slope infrastructure throughout (5 dammed artificial lakes, power lines, lifts, dusty roads, snow-making sprinklers, etc). Visually, the most aesthetic features are the old wood buildings in upper Findeln, and the reflecting lakes of Grindjisee and Stellisee. Experience Stellisee best at sunrise with great reflections of the Matterhorn, after overnight at relaxing Fluhalp (half board meals, coin showers, private rooms), 40 minutes walk from Blauherd lift.
