With the JST Mountain Drive, guests with cerebral palsy can also hike in Bellwald. All Dual Hike hikes are particularly suitable for this.

The Ried is one of the most beautiful hamlets in the village of Bellwald. Admire the floral splendour of the lovingly decorated houses there or the restored chapel there. If you dare to take the detour in the direction of the white cross, you will also be rewarded with a breathtaking view over the Fieschertal valley.
