ビッチの絶景の山頂・トップ20

A beautiful climb from Grengiols to the Breithorn. A good, paved forest road. Also easily doable on gravel. A steady gradient, and in summer, plenty of shade in the forest.

I did the gravel descent from the Breithorn to Visp with 36 mm tires. It was a bit limited on the upper section; it wasn't very comfortable. From the middle of the descent, the road quality improves. It's still totally doable, but next time I'll go for 40 mm tires. We did the gravel climb from Binn via the Saftlital. Honestly magnificent, a bit steep, but nothing totally insurmountable! We stayed at the Auberge Heiligkreuz, which is highly recommended for a two-day tour to enjoy the region.

If you're heading up here, it's a good idea to refill your water supply in Grengiols. Currently, there's only one water point after that, up to the stamping point.

A wonderful viewpoint even in winter

The Great Aletsch Glacier is a sight of archaic beauty. High up, at the Hohfluh, Moosfluh, Bettmerhorn and Eggishorn viewpoints, you can most clearly see the size and uniqueness of the Great Aletsch Glacier. You cannot escape the fascination of the huge ice stream, which stretches over a length of 20 km from its catchment area in the Jungfrau region (4000 m) down to the Massa Gorge, which lies around 2500 m below.

The circular trail is almost 500 metres long and always offers you the perfect view of the UNESCO World Heritage Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch. Information boards along the route provide interesting facts about the largest ice stream in the Alps and the surrounding mountains. The circular trail starts directly at the Eggishorn mountain station.

You need stamina to get up here with the bio-bike.

Finally made the driveway!
