Winter excursions: Pass road

Drive over one of the most historic Valais Alpine passes: On the Grosser St. Bernhard, you will visit the almost 1000-year-old hospice, meet St. Bernard dogs and hike through the alpine landscape on the border with Italy.

The Simplon Pass connects Switzerland with Italy. In the midst of wild high mountain landscapes, it invites you to hike through lonely high moors, along quiet mountain lakes and on historic trade routes.

Drive over the Grimsel Pass and immerse yourself in an archaic high mountain world of granite and water. At 2164 meters, the pass connects the Bernese Oberland with the Valais and is the starting point for numerous hikes.
