Dala Kultur Bike

From Leukerbad the trail leads slightly uphill over meadows and pastures and later downhill through mixed conifer and deciduous forests to Inden. The path partly follows the old track of the former Leuk-Leukerbad railway. The route comprises clear paths without technically difficult obstacles. The view upwards almost presents itself by itself: The high and impressive rock arena impresses again and again from new perspectives. After Inden, the way leads past a restored lime kiln from the late Middle Ages. A little further downhill you have to overcome the steep rock face Schattuflüe on the impressive Varnerleitern path. Even Johann Wolfgang von Goethe reached Leukerbad in 1779 from Sierre via this historic section of the path. After this passage, the field of view gradually widens and the Rhone valley shows itself in its full splendor to the west. The path leads back above the wine village Varen to Leuk town and from there down to the Susten train station.
