An easy route, especially suitable for cyclists looking for a more leisurely ride. The route is mainly on tarmac roads and forest tracks and takes you right through the "magic valley". You will "swing" past the typical Valais villages of Ferden, Kippel, Wiler and Blatten, following the picturesque Lonza mountain stream. Cultural highlights on this route include the well-known pilgrimage site of Kühmatt and the lovely village of Blatten. Make a brief detour into the old village of Blatten with its village bakery, sawmill-gristmill-weaving mill complex and the village hall. Savour the legendary view over the Lötschenlücke Gap when you arrive at the Fafleralp.
