Description
This trail through a pristine alpine landscape offers the ultimate contrast to daily routine at lower altitudes. The play of light and shadow among the clouds in the sky, the distant horizons and the view of the highest mountains in the Alps invariably inspire visitors. “I’m coming back,” they say. “One day. For sure.” This is a pleasant and relaxing path, and does not require a good head for heights.
