    Steiler Anstieg am Anfang mit schöner Aussicht ins Rhonetal. Die Eisenbahnbrücke ist eine faszinierendes Bauwerk in der Mitte der Strecke.

    Eine schöne abwechslungsreiche Tour! Der Weg von Raron zurück zum Ausgangspunkt ist kein Problem, sondern ein guter Abschluss. Die Hängebrücke samt Tunnel ist lohnend einschließlich der Eisenbahnbrücke, die zum Verweilen bis zur Durchfahrt des nächsten Zuges einlädt. Und dann noch die Ausblicke ins Rhonetal ... :-)
