Il se trouve \u00e0 2 757 m\u00e8tres d'altitude, juste au pied du sommet rocheux du Riffelhorn. Le lac ne fait qu'environ 4 m\u00e8tres de profondeur et est plus petit qu'un terrain de football. C'est pourtant l'un des lieux les plus photographi\u00e9s des Alpes. Par temps calme, le Cervin se refl\u00e8te dans ses eaux calmes comme dans un miroir. Cette vue figure sur de nombreuses cartes postales, calendriers et guides touristiques consacr\u00e9s \u00e0 la Suisse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ce qu'il faut voir<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La principale raison de venir ici, c'est le reflet du Cervin. Le meilleur moment, c'est t\u00f4t le matin, quand il n'y a pas de vent et que l'eau est parfaitement calme. Au lever du soleil, le sommet de la montagne prend souvent des teintes roses et orang\u00e9es. Empruntez le sentier qui longe la rive nord du lac pour trouver le meilleur angle de vue. Un peu plus bas se trouve un deuxi\u00e8me lac, plus petit, qui offre \u00e9galement de beaux reflets. Autour du lac, on peut admirer le glacier du Gorner, le massif du Mont-Rose et de nombreux autres sommets d\u00e9passant les 4 000 m\u00e8tres. En \u00e9t\u00e9, les prairies regorgent de fleurs alpines et vous pourrez peut-\u00eatre apercevoir des marmottes. En hiver et au printemps, le lac est gel\u00e9 et recouvert de neige.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Comment s'y rendre et informations pratiques<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Take the Gornergrat Railway from Zermatt and get off at Rotenboden station (2,815 metres). From there it is an easy walk of about 5\u201310 minutes down to the lake. Many visitors first go up to Gornergrat and then walk down to Riffelsee and on to Riffelberg station in about one hour. The path is well marked and easy. The best season to see the reflection is from late June to early October, when the lake is free of ice. Visiting the lake is free, but you need a ticket for the train. Bring warm clothes, because it can be cold and windy at this height even in summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1
