Suspension Bridge in Valais

Highlight • Bridge

This cool stretch of track is not for the faint-hearted as it crosses a suspension bridge to the other side.

Flüealp

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Quaint alp with the possibility of catering. Own cheese production and sale. After the Alp-Abtrieb (October 15th) still open in good weather from Wednesday to Sunday.

Trail Reviews

Monika
June 4, 2022, Rundwanderung ab Leukerbad für Trittsichere

A beautiful circular route from Leukerbad up the Buljes to the Melcherbodu, over the suspension bridge at the Dala Gorge along the mountain to the Fluhkapelle. From there over the Fluhalp down in the direction of Majingalp and there descent UUM Majingsee and from there via a detour and the reward in the Weidstübli back to the village. The path is only suitable for sure-footed people, walking sticks are recommended. You shouldn't be afraid of heights either, the bridges are high and you walk along the slope. Overall, it's a wonderful hike for the more experienced, the views are gorgeous and you just can't stop taking pictures. In summer, a stop at the Fluhalp is highly recommended.
