ミエージュの峡谷・トップ6

Nice participatory activity on the thermal water trail.

The thermal springs are within reach: Dramatic and poetic at the same time, the thermal springs footbridge leads a few meters above the stream bed into the wild Dala Gorge. The thermal springs footbridge is an imposing steel structure that leads through the Dala Gorge for around 600 meters. Some thermal springs spring up in the immediate vicinity of the stream bed. With a small cable pull, the warm thermal water can even be pulled up directly from a spring. A suspension bridge leads further to the roaring natural spectacle. At the waterfall that plunges 35 meters into the depths, you can feel the power of the water up close. A real refreshment in summer. At the end of the footbridge, there are three options for continuing the hike: to the waterfall viewing point, to the Majingsee and the Weidstübli restaurant or to the Buljes restaurant (see detailed route description).

Definitely worth it. Impressive gorge with beautiful waterfalls. You could also pass there in a wheelchair, but I don't think so. I wouldn't do that right away. Easy walk, at some points you should not be afraid of heights because you also have to climb ladders. All safe. Very nice change.

The valley is not accessible by road from its upper part and offers optimal conditions for peaceful walking and wildlife observation. The landscape has typical ice age features: glacial humps, moraines and so-called "Karmulden", i.e. cirque hollows formed by past glaciers.

It is notoriously one of the main geologically unstable regions of Switzerland. The Illgraben massif is made up of dolomite, limestone and quartzite. Several times a year, mudslides from the Illgraben make the Rhône murky until it reaches Lake Geneva, located 90 kilometers downstream.

With the help of a footbridge you can hike along the Dala Gorge. A beautiful view of the gorge and a great atmosphere.

With the help of a pulley, you can scoop a bucket of fresh thermal water out of the Dala and pull it up. How warm is the water? Put your hand in and find out.

The water temperature is incredible
