아이엔트‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 산길

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.

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.

The Via Alpina lives up to its name in this place

The Rawil Pass, French Col du Rawyl. The pass was already used in Roman times and in the Middle Ages and was an important crossing point from the Bernese Oberland to the central Valais. The actual mule track over the Rawil Pass begins in the north on the Iffigenalp, which can now be reached by post bus or by car via a time-controlled road. The path winds its way up through a rock face in serpentines. It had to be blasted out of the rock in the 18th century. Interesting: At the beginning of the 20th century, a narrow-gauge railway was planned from Sion to Lenk over the Rawil, which would have passed under the Rawil Pass in a 2.8 km long summit tunnel at 2050 m above sea level. The project was approved by the cantons of Valais and Bern and the Federal Council in 1912, but was never implemented. Source Wikipedia

Some of the trails are quite narrow, and walking in the deep cow paths is often difficult

Berghaus Laubbärgli is always worth a stopover.
