Turn-by-turn directions
The cable car takes you from Stalden to Staldenried in a few minutes. From here, the circular route, with an ascent of about 500 meters, leads up to "Riedji". This hamlet invites you to take a short break – the panoramic view to the west includes the Augstbord region and to the north the Bernese Alps are unmistakable. After a brief stop, you ride through the forest on a wonderful single trail to "Unnerbrunnu" and onwards to Visperterminen. The Heida village Visperterminen, with the highest vineyard north of the Alpine ridge, offers much culture and impressive barn buildings in the old village center. The route continues with a short descent to "Niederhäusern". Afterwards, the trail leads onto an idyllic path, which initially follows the contour lines, then includes a short climb and later descends towards the start of Staldenried. The trail is easy and pleasant to ride. From Staldenried, an alternative is a flowing trail to "Neubrück"; the last meters to Visp can be covered on the connecting trail Visp-Zermatt (No. 150).
