ブリッグ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

Rosswald lies on a relatively narrow ridge at 1,800 meters, high above Brig. The paved road ends in the center of the village, around which many chalets nestle. Two restaurants (Parkplatz and Adler) directly in the village and two more just outside (Fleschboden and Bortelhütte) offer stunning views of the Rhone Valley and the Bernese Alps opposite, inviting visitors to stop for a break before or after their ascent. As early as the 1950s, this sun-drenched village was made accessible by cable car. The artificial lake just above Rosswald is a popular spot, used in winter for artificial snowmaking on the ski slopes and in summer as a rest area. Several official mountain bike routes also pass through Rosswald, such as the Valais Panorama Bike (Route 81) and the Rosswald Bike Route 780.

The Saflisch Pass, at over 2,500 meters high, can be reached by bike, but it's a real challenge. From Binn, you have to climb over 1,100 meters in altitude over a distance of about 14 kilometers. The higher you go, the wilder and quieter it becomes. A fantastic crossing that demands a lot but is equally rewarding!

In the chapel in the hospice you can pause and say a prayer if you like.

You can stay overnight here (unless, as was the case recently, a film is being shot).

The Simplon Hospice is a hospice of the Augustinian Canons on the Simplon Pass.

Unfortunately, it is still not known how the historic Stockalper Garden was designed in the 17th century. However, its basic structures, which Kaspar Stockalper von Thurm added to the formerly much larger garden landscape (some 10,000 m2), can be precisely described in the historical sources. The garden is divided into two elements: the parterre with pleasure garden (Viridarium) equipped with water elements and squares, and the park with orchard (Pomarium) planted with Pro Specie Rara varieties. With the exciting tree planting, the project spatially ties the different sub-areas together. The meadow embankment is kept free of trees, creating a beautiful transition to the vineyard slope and an exciting line of sight to the castle. Above the cellar vaults, the rose garden provides a small-scale counterpoint to the wide areas. Source: https://www.myswitzerland.com/de-de/erlebnisse/parkgarten-stockalpergarten/

On September 23, 1910, the Peruvian Geo Chavez was the first to fly an airplane over the Alps from Ried-Brig to Domodossola. Shortly before landing in Domodossola, both wings of the Blériot folded upwards and man and machine fell to the ground from a height of almost twenty meters. Geo Chavez died on September 28, 1910. The fountain with Icarus on Sebastiansplatz has commemorated this daring flight since 1920. To this day, the largest airport in Peru bears the name of its proud pilot, Geo Chavez.

Kaspar Stockapler was probably the most successful early capitalist far and wide in his time. Not only the Stockalper Palace in Brig testifies to his wealth - the extensive palace gardens are also a sight to behold. The Stockalper Garden, which was remodeled in 2002, is a particularly inviting place to linger in the summer. The garden has several fruit trees, beautiful lawns, a children's playground and a rose garden. Source and information at: https://www.brig-simplon.ch/poi/stockalpergarten
