Descent of the Furka Pass (Oberwald side)

The pass road and the Rhone glacier became a tourist attraction when the road was completed. In 1914, 19,102 people were counted as travelling over the pass in stagecoaches. From 1921, the coaches were replaced by post buses.

The Lower Goms

Highlight • Trail

This wonderful section lies between Niederwald and Steinhaus (Ernen). Cyclists and hikers share the path here. There is enough space for everyone on the wide hallway. The climb to Steinhaus follows just after this picturesque, rather flat section. Short, but rather steep.
