Equipment
What To Bring
- Good, well fitting boots that ideally you have used before. They can be fairly lightweight but trainers will be inadequate
- Thick woollen socks that fit comfortably in your boots
- Loose comfortable cotton clothes for walking
- Waterproof, breathable jacket and trousers
- Walking poles (if you find they help you)
- Small rucksack for carrying water, camera, lunch, waterproofs etc
- Camera
- High factor sunblock
- Sun glasses
- Small, strong folding umbrella
- Swiss Army Knife
- Insurance that includes helicopter rescue (but do not pay winter sports surcharge)
All of these items can be bought in Zermatt but I would prefer you brought boots that you have worn before if possible.
