Description: The path leads past the old houses of the village, then continues along a relatively flat stretch before climbing through the mountain woods. There’s no rush: the forest invites visitors to get to know its inhabitants. Who will spot the first roe deer? Where are the playful squirrels? Who can see a nutcracker, pecking among the leaves on the forest floor? Ideal for families.
Wildlife including roe deer Appropriate for children from age 6 Mixed forest with Swiss stone pine and larch
Directions: Täsch (station) - Ägerte - Mettelbrücke - Mettelzug – Uferweg – Camping - Täsch (station)

Safety instructions: Plan every mountain tour carefully and adapt to participants’ fitness level as well as the weather and season.
Weather conditions can change quickly in the mountains. Appropriate clothing is therefore essential, along with adequate supplies of food and water. In uncertain weather, turn back in good time.
Inform others of planned route, and whenever possible avoid going alone.
Do not leave the marked routes; do not venture onto glaciers without a mountain guide.
Please be considerate to other walkers and to plants and animals.
Take note of the warning signs drawing attention to the constant danger in river beds and along watercourses below dams and reservoirs.
Beware: railway crossing
Tips: Make a stop at the brigde Mettelbrücke where you can find a “Schweizer Familie” fireplace and enjoy roasting a Cervelat.
Directions: The drive from Visp to Täsch takes about 30–40 min. The road leads through the wild and beautiful Mattertal valley.
Public transportation: By train to Täsch: less than 3½ hours from Zürich airport or 4 hours from Geneva airport. Change at Visp onto the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn (Matterhorn Gotthard Railway). From Visp, the railway leads through the Mattertal valley past idyllic small villages to Täsch.
