Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch Halal Travel Guide

How is the Landscape of Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch

This site is mostly known for its unspoilt mountain landscape. It is a rather diverse landscape, ranging from the arid dry landscape of the Rhone valley over mountain forests and glaciated areas to peaks of more than 4000 metres.

Travel to Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch

This is a quite a huge area and getting there will mainly depend on which part you want to visit. The site is dominated by high peaks and glaciers in the centre and traversing it from north to south or vice-versa is all but imfeasible without appropriate gear and a mountain guide in most areas. Access is feasible from several location in the north (Bernese Highlands) and in the south (Valais).

Valais

From the south, access is feasible at the following places (from west to east):

• Through the Lötschental, which is itself partially inside the site. A /sites/default/files/content/liniennetzplaene/liniennetz-wallis-gampel.pdf postal bus runs along the valley and access is feasible either from the train station of Goppenstein (with trains from Berne or Brig) or Gampel-Steg (with trains from Visp, Brig and Sion). The bus terminates (in Summer) in Fafleralp which is at the perimeter of the site.
• From the Rhone valley: The old /e/bahn/linie-express-loetsch.php train route from Berne to Brig goes along the site of the Rhone valley. There are stops at Hohtenn, Ausserberg, Eggerberg and Lalden. Additionally buses go from Visp to St. (German), Ausserberg and Eggerberg and from Brig to Mund.
• From the Aletsch Arena region hiking and cable cars from either Bettmeralp, Riederalp-Bettmeralp|Riederalp or Fiescheralp give access to the site, notably the Aletsch Forest and viewpoints onto the Aletsch Glacier.

Bernese Highlands

Those are the access points from the north (from west to east):

• Kandersteg has hourly regional trains from Brig as well as Berne via Thun and Spiez.
• The Jungrau area can be visited by train from Interlaken to either Grindelwald or Wengen. To reach Gimmelwald take the bus from Lauterbrunnen then a bus and cable vehicle from there.
• The Grimsel area is hard to reach by public transport. There is one of two postal bus lines (depending on season either /en/leisure/grimsel-pass-route one limited to Grimsel or as part of /en/leisure/susten%E2%80%93furka-grimsel-pass-route a longer route traversing several passes]) which connects the Grimsel Pass to the train stations in Meiringen in the Bernese Highlands and Oberwald in Valais. This is a mountain route and if you are prone on getting sick on buses this will be tough on you. Also make sure to check whether the pass is open beforehand.

Fees and permits

The site is completely open and there is no restriction or fee on access.

How to get around in Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch

The site mostly lies in high altitude terrain and getting around is only feasible by foot or on skies. Trails are marked at regular intervals with yellow signposts and with markings on stones in places without a proper path.

What to do in Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch

Take a Hiking Tour in Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch

There is an abundance of hiking trails in this area. Due to the mountainous terrain, most of the trails are actually on or around the perimeter of the site.

• Southern Lötschberg ramp - 26 kilometers, 8hr 20min, easy | 46.3224, 7.7641 Get out at Hohtenn station and follow the signs - Before the new base tunnel was opened in 2007 and the main train line slowly descended the site of the Rhone valley until it reached the floor at Brig. While it's still feasible to take the train along this scenic route, it's nicer to get out at one of the stations and walk along the trail which follows the train route. While the whole trail is very long, it's feasible (and recommended) to only walk a part of it. Between Hohtenn and Brig and there are several train stations (Ausserberg, Eggerberg und Lalden) at which it is feasible to catch a train in either direction (hourly). This trail offers nice panoramic views on the Rhone valley through the arid and scarcely vegetated sunny side of the valley. Due to its exposed nature it can get scorching hot in the summer months and while it's still feasible to do the hike, autumn usually offers milder temperatures and views in autumn colours. It is also an ideal place to explore some of the impressive watering channels (locally called Suonen).
• Hohtürli Pass - 14.5 kilometers, 7hr 10min, medium difficulty | 46.5473, 7.7618 Take the bus from Reichenbach to Griesalp - This trail leads from the Griesalp via the Hohtürli Pass to Oeschinen Lake and Kandersteg.
