Matterhorn Climb 4K | July 2023

14th July 2023 - my dad, Christian, Morten, and I all reached the top of the fierce mountain, Matterhorn (4.478m).

We climbed Matterhorn as practice for our upcoming trip to the Himalayas, where we will climb Ama Dablam (6.812m) - which is also known as “Matterhorn of the Himalaya”. However, Matterhorn has proven to be a milestone of itself, and not just practice... It was a mental battle to push through the narrow ridges, steep climbs and difficult terrain. In the end, it was all worth it!

I have tried to capture the experience with my GoPro Hero 11, to show you the rawness of the Matterhorn climb. But, to feel the roughness of the mountain, you must see it, feel it, and climb it yourself - if you dare ;)

I hope you enjoyed the video!

I find the Matterhorn a very epic looking mountain. I watched a film fourty years ago and it marked me a lot. I will never be a climber but I really enjoy the videos and films. Thanks for sharing. I suffer from heights so it’s on the ground i stay.

I love Zermatt and the view of the Matterhorn. I would never be able to climb it but have skied past it several times.

Thank you for the great footage! I know that I will never be able to climb that mountain. Watching this video is the closest I'll ever get to being able to experience it for myself!

Some of the rocks these climbers hold on to look everything but sturdy and steady.

This is a great video! Congrats. Was it as busy as it looked? Some parts looked quite congested?

Hi Mark,

Great video!
I'm planning to climb the Matterhorn in September with a guide.
I have experience climbing but I find it difficult to determine what kind of physical condition you need to have. I live in Switzerland so I do regular hikes in the weekend. But do you maybe have a reference in terms of running (distance/time) or something else in order to assess the physical condition for this climb?

What was your previous experience before climbing the MH? :)

Thank you!

That mountain took so many lives. Most deaths in any mountain of the world in the last 150 years.

This is amazing! How did you activate and deactivate your gopro for filming? How did you find the time ?

Oh Himmel, so viele Menschen. Das wäre echt nix für mich. Da geh ich lieber allein in den Wald und genieße Natur, Ruhe und Frieden
