クランモンタナの峠・トップ11

After my retirement, I had a lot of free time, but the feeling of loneliness also grew stronger. Friends were gone, and children were busy with their families. I stumbled upon the website https://www.flirtyon.com/ by chance and was eager to try it out. Adults and understanding people communicate here. I found a good conversation partner with whom I enjoyed drinking tea and having an open conversation.

The Col du Sanetsch is certainly one of Switzerland's classic mountain passes, even though it can only be approached by road bike from the south. There are two alternative routes: one starts in Sion, the other, this one, in Conthey. Above the village of Daillon, the two roads converge and the steeper part of the climb begins. While there is only a parking lot at the Col du Sanetsch, the highest point, you can continue on the paved road to the reservoir (Lake Sanetsch). There is an inn there. The cable car station, which offers a ride down to Gsteig bei Gstaad, is also located here. This makes the pass a perfect circular tour.

From the Iffigenalp, a hiking trail leads through the forest and then along paths blasted into the rock to the pass. Together with the many waterfalls and the plateau, I found this pass to be magnificent.

Please note the new route (risk of rockfall) between the Wildstrubelhütte and Wisshorelücke.

The Weisshornlücke is a mountain pass in the Wildstrubel massif in the cantons of Bern and Valais. The pass is located at an altitude of 2852 metres above sea level, just above the Wildstrubel Hut and between the Rohrbachstein and the Wisshore.

At the Rawil Pass you are at an altitude of 2,429 meters and on the border between the cantons of Bern and Valais. It is good that the plans from the 1980s to build a road and tunnel here were rejected by a popular initiative, because this means that the mountain idyll continues to prevail here instead of noise.

A beautiful, weather-shaped mountain in the Bernese Alps. From the summit you can get an excellent view of the Wildhorn, which is located right next to this peak. The summit sits on a rolling ridge, meaning the route to the summit passes through exciting and somewhat exposed mountain terrain, giving a lovely airy atmosphere and adding to the adventure of the day!
