But almost: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klein_Matterhorn
You could start in Sion(500m) or Visp(660m) take the train to Zermatt(1600m)
and from there the cablecar up to Klein Matterhorn(3880m). That would
give a nice 3000m of height difference. From Sion it takes 2.5h to 3h,
from Visp 2h to 2.5h. So you could potentially get up in the morning,
go up, install everything and be back for dinner :-)

If anyone wants to do that, please let me know. :-)
