A normal route or normal way (French: voie normale; German: Normalweg) is the most frequently used climbing route for ascending and descending a given mountain peak; it is usually the easiest and often the most straightforward route.[2][3] Other generic names include the tourist route, and some climbing routes have specific 'normal route' names such as the "Yak Route" on Mount Everest.[4]
Although a serious alpine climbing route in its own right, the Hörnli ridge (1,220 m, ADIII) of the Matterhorn is the "voie normale" that most climbers use to reach the summit.[1]
