POI details

Away from the ski slopes, the slightly ascending trail leads you from the valley station along the road past the sports centre, to turn right after about 50 m following the signs. Continue along the local residential buildings towards the edge of the forest. Here you trudge on through the winter forest and along the Suone Bineri directly to Gasenried.
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.
