It almost looks as if you could climb the ridge on the right all the way to the top. Unfortunately, looks can be deceiving, the Matterhorn is one of the deadliest peaks in the Alps.

Christine from
Australia about 12years ago said: I agree with Mira. :) These giants should not be trodden upon. But that is not the point. The point is the photo, which is lovely from this unusual angle. Did you climb it Maks?
Mira from
