Switzerland Riffelsee with Matterhorn reflection
The classic Matterhorn Picture. There are other lakes that reflect the Matterhorn, but this is the one you can get to without a long hike.
Photography Tips
The lake is calmest in the morning and the Matterhorn peak catches the first rays of the sun.
Make sure you are there some time before sunrise because the reflection is also very beautiful in the starlight and you can catch the milky way as well.
