The best running trails around Zeneggen

Made sweetly, especially for children. There are plenty of questions about squirrels and it is explained in a child-friendly way.

The Reblehrpfad Visperterminen (Vineyard Educational Trail) provides information on several panels about viticulture in the highest vineyards on the European mainland. Along the path, visitors learn more about vine pruning, different grape varieties, the construction of traditional dry stone walls, and the labor-intensive management of steep vineyard terraces. A special focus is placed on the indigenous grape variety Heida (Savagnin Blanc), for which Visperterminen is known far beyond the region. The educational trail combines impressive views with interesting insights into the centuries-old wine culture of Valais. Interesting: The information panels are bilingual – in High German and the Walliser dialect – thus conveying not only knowledge about viticulture but also a piece of regional culture.

Wine hike through Europe's highest vineyard, combined with a wine tasting at the local St. Jodern winery. Below the village of Visperterminen lies Europe's highest, contiguous vineyard, at an altitude between 650 and 1,150 meters. In short terraces with high dry stone walls, the vineyard, called „Rieben“, overcomes 500 meters of altitude difference in a confined space. Hundreds of these retaining walls turn the steep slopes into small vine gardens, often no larger than two bedsheets. The southern exposure of the slope, in one of Switzerland's driest regions, and the large stone surfaces of these dry stone walls make the „Rieben“ a heat chamber until late autumn, which gives the grapes – along with a few gusts of Föhn wind – the necessary ripeness.

The original Martinskirche cannot be precisely dated, but old records document renovations as early as the 13th century; it is presumed that the wealthy priest Mathias Belwalder significantly advanced the construction of a new church in the 17th century and financed a considerable part of it. Even today, a stone in the wall commemorates his work.
