The path along the Saltina leads into the heart of nature. Over bridges and alongside the stream, you can listen to the rushing water. The path to Grindji is pleasantly flat. From Grindji to Wickert, there is an ascent rewarded with a beautiful view. There is a small chapel in Wickert. After that, the path leads back to Brig.

Author’s recommendation

Visit the charming chapel in Wickert.
