    Top Wanderung - ich habe sie umgekehrt und steigend gemacht - so bleibt der Höhepunkt bis am Schluss :-). Wer noch mag kann aufs Eggishorn selbst gehen und den phänomenalen Ausblick geniessen.

    Eindrückliche und tolle Tour. Der Blockgrat macht viel Spaß, wenn man gerne kraxelt. Beim ersten See kann man runter bis direkt zum Gletscher. Habe es auch mal andersrum gemacht vom höchsten Punkt über den Grat und dann unten am Gletscher entlang zurück und durch den Tunnel. Auf die Weise kommen einem die Touries nur entgegen und man hat das Matterhorn immer im Blick.

    (einige Bewertungen aus dem Klettergarten Feedback-Formular) 15.07.2023 Sehr schöne Routen mit guter Linienführung und hallenmässig enger Absicherung, sicher ein Plus für viele. Der Klettergarten ist auch von der Fiescheralp in rund einer Stunde zu Fuss gut erreichbar (wir waren in 3/4h vom Klettergarten bei der Bahn). Vielen Dank für diese neue Kletterperle im Aletschgebiet. René und Luca 09.09.2022 Sehr schön eingerichtet, vielen Dank!😉👍🏻

    Wir haben die Wanderung aus Versehen umgekehrt gemacht, also zuerst Richtung Biel. Leider war der Weg schlecht signalisiert; wir verpassten die Abzweigung und landeten schliesslich auf Hohbalm, was eigentlich nicht zu dieser Wanderung gehören würde, aber dafür war die Aussicht von da sehr schön. Generell waren bereits die Mehrheit der Wegweiser für den Winter demontiert und lagen am Boden, im Dorf Bettmeralp fehlten sie sogar gänzlich. Die Strecke Hohbalm bis Riederfurka war wirklich sehr toll, mit beeindruckender Aussicht auf den Aletschgletscher! Einen Stern Abzug hingegen gibt es für die Strecke Riederfurka-Bettmeralp. Wir empfanden diese als weniger sehenswert. Wenn man den Wanderweg wie ausgeschrieben in der korrekten Richtung geht ist der Eindruck dieser Strecke vielleicht etwas besser, weil der Aletschgletscher (Highlight) gegen Schluss kommt. Generell würden wir einen anderen Weg vorschlagen: Gondelbahn bis Riederalp, dann über den Grat bis Hohbalm mit Abstecher zum "Gletscherausblick" und dann runter zur Bettmeralp. Bitte nehmt euren Abfall wieder mit!

    Great hike, first part was challenging for me as I’m rather a beginner, but very rewarding. I also recommend taking a walk to Bettmeralp from Fiescheralp - the views are amazing.

    This v.f. was loads of fun. The bridges were challenging and the end, where the v.f. winds around and over rock pillars, was very well designed. Our thanks to the designers for creating such an excellent route. It is very well protected and is not just for kids!
