Hiking
The ten-ton sculpture was created in 2007 entirely from 500 meters of rails from the degraded branch line of the Matterhorn-Gotthard Railway, which ran through Naters just a few meters away. The four-ton ball at the top symbolizes the sun; it consists of 720 cross-sawn pieces of rail. The three supports represent the mitre in Naters' coat of arms.
