Suone Unnerwasser with AlphubelPhoto: Saastal Tourismus AG ., Saastal Tourismus AG
The Suone Unnerwasser has been brought back to life and brings the topic of the «Suonen» closer to the guests. From the Wildi, the path leads along the Suone above Saas-Fee to the Stafelwald.
The path to the Suone Unnerwasser starts at the Wildi and follows the Zuckmayerweg to the end of the Suone. The path leads next to the open suone "upstream" towards the mountains. Besides the mountain peaks and the water, the view falls again and again on the village of Saas-Fee.
At 5 locations there is interesting information about the Suonen and their importance for the Valais. At some points, the focus is on rest and relaxation. Shortly before the Stafelwald, the actual start of the Suone, the path leads through the protective wall back to the village square. Here our little entertainers, the marmots, are already waiting for a visit.
Those who wish can continue to the Felskinn valley station and hike back to the bus station via the Bodmerwasser Suone.
