POI details

The first part of this hike takes you relaxed through the car-free part of Grächen to Chäschermatten. You follow the relatively flat trail towards Gasenried, but after about 1,300 metres of walking, shortly after the start of the forest, turn right downhill towards Niedergrächen.

From Visp you take the train to St. Niklaus. There you change to the bus, which gets you to Grächen every half hour. On weekends a direct bus operates from Visp to Grächen.
