The Suspension Bridge Trail in the Aletsch Arena is a hidden gem through the valleys of Wallis, or Valais in French, in the Swiss Alps. This moderate to difficult trail covers approximately 86 kilometers in six stages, beginning in Bitsch and ending at Landstafel after traversing the several suspension bridges in the region. One of these bridges is the well-known 124-meter-long suspension bridge at Belalp-Riederalp. This suspension bridge stands as an absolute highlight of the Aletsch Arena. Positioned 80 meters above the Massa Gorge, and just before the entrance to the Aletsch Glacier.
The Aletsch Arena is nestled within the Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch UNESCO World Heritage Site and has an extensive network of 300 kilometers of hiking trails. The trails are for various skill levels, from high-altitude routes to family-friendly paths.
