Matterhorn in July 2027: sunrise glow by day

Short answer: On 15 July 2027: First light on the Matterhorn at 05:54; the red-to-gold glow lasts until about 06:30. Be at the Zermatt village bridge or Riffelsee by 05:24. Every day of July is in the table.

At sunrise the very tip of the Matterhorn turns red first, then the light runs down the east face while Zermatt is still in shadow. Monte Rosa and the Mischabel peaks stand to the east, so the summit catches the sun only a few minutes before a flat-horizon sunrise.
