Matterhorn Mountain Italy/Switzerland

The Matterhorn is a mountain in the Pennine Alps on the border between Switzerland and Italy. Its summit is 4,478 metres high, making it one of the highest peaks in the Alps. The Theodul Pass, located at the eastern base of the peak, is the lowest passage between its north and south side. Each summer a large number of mountaineers try to climb the Matterhorn via the northeast Hörnli ridge, the most popular route to the summit.
