Fahad Badar, a Qatari climber reaches peak of Switzerland's Matterhorn mountain
Qatari climber, Fahad Badar's latest quest for adventure took him to the peak of the famed Matterhorn mountain, located on the Swiss-Italian border.
The distinct pyramidal shape of this almost 15,000 ft tall mountain makes it one of the most technically challenging mountains to scale.
Although not the highest peak in the Alps, the mountain's fame comes from its impossible shape and distinctive landform. Its four steep faces rise above the nearby glaciers and face the four compass points: north, south, east, and west.
A few days before scaling the Matterhorn peak, Badar reached the summit of the Mont Blanc mountain, the highest peak in France and the Alps.
