    Hiking

    The SBB Ritom power station, built from 1917, offers a fascinating journey on one of the steepest funiculars in Switzerland. The Ritom funicular, which has also been open to tourists since 1921, impresses with a gradient of 87.8 percent. The current carriage for 50 passengers dates from 1985, while the earlier carriage is on display at the valley station in Piotta. The railway runs from May to October and offers spectacular views and historical insights. A must for technology and nature enthusiasts!
