On the way through vineyards and wine villages in the nature park.
Start with the cable car ride: Gampel - Jeizinen. From Jeizinen the route leads to Erschmatt and/or Feschel-Guttet. Between Leuk and Varen one crosses the Dala gorge. The descent goes directly down through Salquenen to the railway station at Sierre.
Diversity of nature on a picturesque trail along the rippling water course. Walk along the Suone Neuf (Bisse Neuf) and the Grossi Wasserleitu from Varen (Varen irrigation channel). Both irrigation channels take their water directly from the Raspille
Already the ancient Romans were familiar with the healing powers of water and wine. The old Roman road connects the bathing experience with wine tasting.
The artists' village of Veyras, where Rainer Maria Rilke lived, the Raspille Gorge, the Valais Wine Museum in the Zumofenhaus in Salgesch and the village of Varen are all well worth seeing. Another possibility goes through the forest of Pfyn/Finges.
The Jeizinen - Leuk - Sierre nature park trail combines everything that makes a nature park:
Exceptional landscapes, historic village centres and impressive views of the Rhone Valley.
