    Hiking

    The Simplon Pass (1,995 meters) connects the Rhone Valley in the Swiss canton of Valais with the Val d'Ossola in the Italian province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola and Lake Maggiore.

    The glaciated Fletschhorn towers over it on the south side, and the Spitzhorli (2,736 meters) is a little to the north-west.

    There are two natural lakes at the pass (the Rotelsee and the Hopschusee), two more have been created artificially.
