Brig has been one of the Alpine towns since 2008. On the hike we discover sights worth seeing from Brig and experience ideas that are planned for the local recreation area in Grindji.

We hike uphill along the Saltina over the Napoleon Bridge to the Grindji recreation area. Then we climb further towards the high plateau at the Brigerberg and finally reach the Lingwurm. Then we descend via Moos back to the Stockalperpalast in Brig.
