View of the Simplon area and valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

Nice view over the mountains opposite and down the valley, a small compensation for the long, arduous climb over the forest road, which is easy to drive on.

August 20, 2024,Wallis Tag 1: Fiesch - Fiescheralp - durch Tälligrattunnel - Aletschgletscher - Bettmeralp - Bitsch

I actually wanted to do 4 bike tours in Valais during the summer holidays. But because the weather was crazy, I spontaneously decided to do 2 bike tours and booked accommodation in Visp. I packed the essentials in my bike backpack and the journey can begin. I arrived especially on Monday.
So today is day 1.

I actually wanted to ride down into the valley from Riederalp. But first of all, I couldn't find a path or a sign showing me the way. When I asked if anyone knew a path, the answer was why I didn't take the lift. So, as it was already just after 4 p.m., I took the lift down into the …

Stoneman Glaciara Bronze Tour (Fiesch - Aletsch Glacier) - with overnight stay at the Logis partner Sport Resort in Fiesch. Thanks to its central location, transfers to or from the Stoneman route via the Furkastrasse in the valley are possible without any additional elevation gain.

September 23, 2023,Stoneman Glaciara zweiter Tag. 🥶🥶

We took the train from Mörel to Fiesch to start the second day.
At the beginning it was a little flat, then it climbed to Fiescheralp with an average of 10% and from then on it got really nasty and cold 🥶😱🥶 we drove on to the Tälligrat tunnel where we treated ourselves to dry clothes 😉

August 13, 2022,Stoneman Glaciara 🇨🇭 Tag1🚵‍♂️☀️

We thought we could roll about 2km up to the ascent, so after 100m we turned right into a small path and up, right in first gear. Otherwise, you can first get up to Fiescheralp evenly and relaxed. From then on the route became "uneven". After the tunnel there is the possibility to walk to an Aletsch glacier view, driving …
