A look at the altitude profile shows us the character of this interesting bike route. What is not apparent from it is the magnificent view on the Breithorn, the unique descent into the Saflischtal valley over the most beautiful singletrails and alpine meadows, and the wonderful return trip via the national bike route No. 1 over Weilers Blatt back to Grengiols.

The ascent to the Breithorn involves a total of 1700 meters of elevation to overcome. From the hamlet Viertel, a forest road leads up no less than 14 hairpin bends to the pass below the Breithorn. On the ridge, follow the marked hiking trail to the summit of the Breithorn at 2599 meters above sea level (about 300 meters must be pushed). The view is impressive, opposite lies the Aletsch region and just below the well-known Binntal valley.
