Bürchen
Introdução
As vilas alpinas de Unterbäch, Bürchen e Eischoll estão situadas em um planalto ensolarado no alto vale do Ródano. Estes pequenos resorts familiares na região de Augsbord são um verdadeiro paraíso da primavera ao outono, e região de esportes de inverno muito procurada por famílias no inverno.
There are fabulous views from this sunny high plateau, situated on the Augstbordhorn at an altitude of about 1200 m. It is accessible from Visp and Turtmann by road and cable railways run from Raron to Eischoll and Unterbäch. On the opposite side of the Rhone Valley towers the imposing Bietschhorn. Thanks to their central location in the Upper Valais, these holiday resorts are ideal for excursions in the Valais.
The resort of Bürchen, also known as ‘Birkendorf’ has devoted itself entirely to the birch trees, after which it is named. Along the Birch Trail you can learn everything there is to know about this native tree. Visitors to the area can enjoy 220 km of footpaths and 70 km of cycle trails. Special children’s entertainments are organised in July and August.
