The Hohtschuggen viewing point is unique and a very special experience that you should not miss during your stay in Grächen.

You can reach the Hohtschuggen from Grächen village square after a 30-minute walk or from Bärgji in about 10 minutes. The cosy Restaurant Hohtschuggen invites you to while away the hours and indulge. Enjoy the tranquillity and unique view over the Visper valley as far as Visp.

The Hohtschuggen can be reached easily on foot in both the summer and winter.
