The winter hiking trail is no longer in use and is not signposted. Plenty of sunshine and spectacular views of the Mattertal Valley and the surrounding four-thousand-metre peaks – this winter hike starts from Grächen and continues on a tarmac road past Hannigalp valley station and the chapel in Egga. In the forest, the route flattens out until the end destination of Bärgji-Alp.
