Descrição

Throughout the year there are many trails available for hiking around the Zermatt area. The trail descirbed here is a suggestion for a day trip. The birds being presented here can be found throughout the entire Zermatt area.

The 5 Seenweg or 5 Lakes Walk (trail number 11) is a 10 km trail that takes you along 5 beautiful alpine lakes, the last of which you can take a swim in. The directions described here starts from Blauherd which you can reach by gondola lift. Walking the trail the other way around is also possible.

At Blauherd you start above the tree line and immediately when you walk out of the station you can find your first birds. Keep an eye out for Pardal-alpino, Gralha-de-bico-amarelo and in rare cases Ferreirinha-alpina. Marmots also live around here. Walking down the mountain you will find large amounts of Chasco-cinzento and Rabirruivo-preto with Petinha-ribeirinha amongst them. Look up and you might see Andorinhão-preto or Androinha-das-rochas. Walking along the trail and past the beautiful lakes you eventually reach the tree line. Here you find a variety of forest birds like Quebra-nozes, Dom-fafe, Ferreirinha-comum and Chapim-de-poupa. At the final lake you have also reached the Sunnegga station. From here you can take the lift or walk the Gourmet trail down to Zermatt. Along this additional 10 km trail you walk past resaurants and more grassy areas where you can find Tordo-zornal, Petinha-das-árvores, Cia and marmots amongst others. While hiking keep an eye out for Águia-real, Quebra-ossos and Águia-d'asa-redonda flying high in the sky amongst the mountains.

Although a scope is useful here since you can see far and wide it is a bit of an obstacle to carry it along the entire trail.
