Comments

June 22, 2025,Turtamennsee Valais

This valley is barely 20 kilometers long and has an average width of no more than half a kilometer. It is one of the smallest of the valleys on the left bank of the Valais. Larches and Swiss stone pines are abundant, the flora incredibly colorful, and the color of the lakes is incredible.
