However, you might want to enjoy some of the stories a bit longer or have a rest in between (relax on a bench, grill a sausage) - just take your time !

For this walk you will need a handy - there are eight benches where you can listen to exciting stories fitting the respective place by dialling a free phone number.

Author’s recommendation

Halfway, by the old bath of Fideris, there is a campfire site ready for use. Wood is available. Just as well, there are also pleasant restaurants in the village that offer refreshments and snacks.

The Bakery Gujan of Fideris is worth a detour. They still produce the famous 'Fideris gâteau' which, by the way, has been admitted to the register 'Culinary Inheritance of Switzerland'.
