Riffelsee - picturesque mountain lake located in the Swiss Alps near Zermatt. This small lake is beloved for its mirror-like reflections of the famous Matterhorn peak. You can enjoy an easy landscape walk from the Rotenboden train station to Riffelsee, where you can take in spectacular views of the valley below and neighboring mountain peaks. If you’re lucky, you may also spot some Valais Blacknose sheep or rare alpine flowers lining the shore. The best times to visit are on clear days during sunrise or sunset, when the light is perfect for photography and the reflections in the water make for mesmerizing scenery.
