Steinhaus Village

Highlight • Settlement

Somewhat sleepy little town on the Rhone cycle path.
As far as I know, unfortunately without a place to stop.

Café Suspension Bridge

Highlight • Cafe

The cosy Café Hängebrigga owned by the family of Olympic snowboard champion Patrizia Kummer is an absolute insider tip: not only the cake tastes fantastic here.

Goms Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

This is a quite spectacular suspension bridge. It is made (like the Valais houses) of larch wood and crosses the young Rhone (or Rotten) at a height of 92 meters. It is only 140 centimeters wide, 280 meters long and thus one of the longest pedestrian suspension bridges in Switzerland.

Caesar Ritz was born in Niederwald. He was the "king of hoteliers and the hotelier of kings". His grave is in the cemetery next to the church.
