Rellerli Bike
Overview
Intro
This tour will take you through traditional Alpine farming regions on the periphery of the Bernese cantonal and linguistic border with French-speaking Switzerland. It simultaneously takes in the entire spectrum of sights, ranging from the quaint village of Abländschen.
Description
The tour starts in the village of Saanen with its narrow roads and alleys, bordered by old timber houses and the St. Maurice Church dating from the 15th century. The first section of the tour leads through the narrow and remote Grischbach valley right to the Mittelberg pass. This marks the direct route into the remote village of Abländschen, which is dominated by the steep high rock faces of the «Gastlosen», also beloved by rock climbers.
Agricultural Alpine farms, termed «Vorschess» in the Saanenland, as well as increasingly more Alpine vegetation now characterise the tour. In clear weather, the view stretches from the Freiburg to the Valais and Bernese Alps. The views soon extend to the green fields and chalets that characterise the broad valley of the Saanenland.
An enjoyable tour includes the careful planning of the same. Please inform yourself in advance at the local information center about the route and weather conditions. Depending on the season and weather conditions, this route may be blocked or interrupted
