Valais Panorama Bike - stage 2
From Reckingen, cycle along the Rhône for around 13 kilometres to Mühlebach on a wide dirt track, passing small villages offering an opportunity to discover well-preserved sites. Mühlebach offers a fascinating opportunity to see Switzerland's oldest centre with wooden houses. Ernen is no less impressive: with its magnificent village square, it is situated on a moraine terrace above the Rhône and is of great historical and cultural importance. From here, the ascent to the Frid alp offers both a sporting challenge and breathtaking views. Cross the Rappetal valley, an unspoilt natural gem, and follow the trail as it winds along the contour to Z'Mübach. Change to the opposite side of the valley and you’ll ride a singletrack with the murmur of the Milebach stream in your ears. Before reaching Fürgangen, push your bike over a spectacular suspension bridge before reaching the cable car which will take you to Bellwald, your destination for the day.
Depending on the snow conditions and the presence of herd guard dogs, a deviation from the route is put in place every summer, allowing you to go directly to ‘Niederäner Chäller’ without passing through the Rappertal. Please respect this change.
