Additional information

The winter habitats and animal protection areas are mostly located in the forest. To preserve the animals' peace, one must follow the trail markings. At the respective starting points of the trails and at necessary points, information boards indicate this issue. In collaboration with wildlife wardens and forestry officials, the listed trails have been classified as wildlife- and forest-friendly. Snowshoers are asked not to leave the marked paths – for their safety and to protect the animals in the forest. We thank you for your consideration and wish you pleasant experiences during your winter hike.

Safety guidelines

The use of winter hiking and snowshoe trails and the information on this website is at your own risk. The conditions on site may possibly cause changes to the route. Valais/Wallis Promotion and Brig Simplon assume no liability for the accuracy and completeness of the information on this website.

- Carry a map with you. Download the complete description of the hiking trail including a large-scale map by clicking "Print" at the top right of the page.
- Only use marked hiking trails and follow all signs and instructions – for your own safety, to protect the livestock, and without disturbing the peace of the wildlife.
- Be considerate towards other trail users and the landscape. Take your waste and that of others with you.
- Carry additional sun protection. UV rays at high altitudes can be very strong, especially in winter, even on cloudy days.
- Plan your hike carefully: take into account the required fitness of all participants, weather forecasts, and seasonal dependencies.
- Weather conditions can change very quickly in the mountains without warning. Appropriate clothing and sufficient provisions (food and drink) are very important. In unstable weather, better turn back early.
- Pay attention to warning signs indicating dangers.

This route is only accessible when the piste is open!

The trails are marked with wooden stakes which are painted purple. Reflective bands are also attached. We ask you to stick to the marked routes in the interest of our forest and wildlife.

No liability. Proceed at your own risk!
