Description

Rimpfischhorn is a 4000 meter peak located in the mountain chain that connects the Monte Rosa with the Mischabel peaks, north of the Dom. The normal route involves an approach from Saas Fee with an overnight stay at the Britannia hut. However it can also be approached from Zermatt, with an overnight stay at either the Hotel Fluhalp or Täsch hut.
