Belalp witches' descent
Overview
Intro
It's high time again when the witches meet on the Belalp for the 44rd Belalp Hexe.
For one week in January, everything at the Blatten-Belalp ski resort revolves around the theme of witches. The Belalp Hexe is a week-long event that reaches its undisputed climax on Saturday with the Belalp Hexenabfahrt. In the run-up to the big Witches' Downhill, however, various other races are held during the week and spectators are also offered a comprehensive supporting program with the Witches Nights and the Witches' Children's Festival.
The Belalp witch goes back to an old Valais legend. According to this legend, a witch once wreaked havoc here. In memory of these old times, the Belalp Witches' Downhill was created almost 43 years ago.
Join us and be enchanted by the mystical atmosphere on the Belalp!
