POI details

You start your winter hike at the Millega car park downhill and cross the road in the lower part of the village. The trail leads you along wintry pasture sections, historic barns, through the idyllic winter forest, via the hamlet of Bina to Bärgji. After a short ascent, the trail continues past the ski lift to the Bärgji-Alp restaurant. Here you can enjoy your stop at its best. After the well-deserved culinary refreshment, follow the path over the sunny Egga section on the asphalt road back down to the village.
From Visp you take the train to St. Niklaus. There you change to the bus, which gets you to Grächen every half hour. On weekends a direct bus operates from Visp to Grächen.
