Some natural beauty is on our doorstep, others can be reached by boat or train. But you have to work out the beauty of a mountain summit. In the distance, these giants rise from our earth and seem unreachable. To see the sun rise behind a mountain top, you have to climb it - that's what makes mountains so special.
No place in the world gives you the same feeling of standing on the top of a mountain as you look with your own eyes across the vast horizon, breathing the clearest air our world has to offer. The only thing you hear are the stories of the wind and the wing beats of birds hovering in those heights. In order to reach this place, you have to take a lot, climb steep walls and leave altitude meters behind you. What awaits you up there is priceless. Follow me to the five most beautiful peaks on earth.
Number 5: Matterhorn
Above all, it is one of the most famous mountains in the world, the Matterhorn of Switzerland, and unfortunately, especially due to the numerous failures of mountain climbers in the past to conquer its summit. The Matterhorn is also the symbol of Switzerland and with its 4,478 meters one of the highest mountains in the Alps, located in one of the most popular hiking and skiing areas in Europe. Its distinctive and beautifully formed mountain peak should also be the pattern for the all-known chocolate Toblerone.
Number 4: Cerro Torre
Rising over 3,000 meters, this spiky mountain peak is located in Patagonia, on the border between Argentina and Chile. Its steep and at the same time smooth walls have been calling mountaineers from all over the world since the 1950s to climb this almost unscalable mountain. Even the movie "Cerro Torre - Not the slightest chance" was dedicated to him, which increased his reputation even more. Although one mountaineer had to pay with his death, the other does not stop there, with the Cerro Torre continue to defeat one of the most beautiful peaks in the world.
Number 3: Ama Dablam
A special climbing experience is offered by the Ama Dablam, the "Matterhorn of Nepal" in the Himalayas. As emerged from the picture book, this summit made it to third place, because above all its shapely beauty makes it particularly handsome. But the beauty is deceptive, so many climbers have left here with the dream of once standing on the summit of Ama Dablam, his life.
Number 2: Mount Fuji
The sight of Mount Fuji in Japan really makes anyone dream - a volcano that could not be more atmospheric. The cone rises sharply high, lightly covered with a beautiful white blanket of snow, as if someone had put it on. It is not only a popular destination for tourists, but also became part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2013. The lakes on the foot, the Fuji Five Lakes, make this summit perfect.
Number 1: Three Peaks
In the north of Italy, in the Sextener Dolomites, a mountain panorama stretches out of superlatives and out stand three rocky giants that look almost so, so they would have been placed there. These three stone giants have truly earned the first place of the most beautiful summits. If you want to bury them up close, the best way to get to the Dreizinnenhütte, where you can also spend the night. Get up early and enjoy the sunrise - an absolutely unique experience.
