BLS Railway Discovery Trail

Experience the Lötschberg mountain route at close quarters

Keen hikers who would like to learn more about rail travel, the Lötschberg mountain line and the Kandertal valley will discover an opportunity to combine education and pleasure. The route runs in part alongside the rails, but also takes you high above the railway track from where you can enjoy imposing views of viaducts and helical tunnels plus splendid panoramas of the Kandertal. Along the way, 43 new signboards have been erected with fascinating information on railways, tracks, buildings and trains.
