Dry stone wall project “Rumelingweg”
The dry stone walls along the Rumelingweg trail in the nature park municipality of Leuk are very prominent and immediately catch the eye of hikers. At the start of the joint project in 2020, almost all of the dry stone walls were overgrown with vegetation, in need of renovation and in some cases in serious danger of collapsing. The Pfyn-Finges Nature Park and the nature park municipality of Leuk set themselves the goal of preserving and upgrading the dry stone walls along the historic transport route of national importance.
Since 2020, sections have been maintained, renovated or rebuilt every year in accordance with the upgrading concept developed. The measures are implemented by dry stone wall specialists, supervised community service or volunteer groups and as part of adult courses.
