Details

Description

The circular hike first leads over mountain meadows, then through the Mülitobel and over the old covered wooden bridge "Geissegg". The view into the narrow, deep gorge is impressive. You walk through shade-providing forests, with the Zanaibach rushing below. Another highlight for bridge lovers is the Tschennertobel Bridge, a natural stone arch bridge, which makes the return journey to Valens an experience.

Hidden Gem

After the hike, you can relax in the thermal pool of the Valens Clinic.
