イコーニュの峠・トップ20

A totally brilliant path, beautiful, idyllic, wildly romantic

Unfortunately, the Hahnnstall had no served terrace on Monday and Tuesday (host Sunday ?¡ 🤔)

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.

I wouldn't recommend the paved road with its concrete slabs. The restaurant on the pass is also too expensive.

Here the mountain hiking trails branch off towards Gemmibahn, Lämmerenhütte, Gemmiweg

The Gemmi Pass is a 2268 m above sea level[1][2] high mountain pass in Switzerland. It is located in the Valais municipality of Leukerbad in the Bernese Alps and forms a north-south connection between Kandersteg in the Kandertal (canton of Bern) and Leukerbad in the valley of the Dala. The pass is on the ridge between the Daubenhorn (2942 m above sea level) in the west and the Plattenhörner (up to 2855 m above sea level) in the east. The border with the canton of Bern is much further north and lower. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gemmipass

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.

There are an incredible number of hiking options up here, with all levels of difficulty; there is practically something for everyone 🙂
