Sass Fee

We were dropped off in Sass Grund by the postal bus, and our guide, Bernhard Schafroth, led us along the Freevispa River, passing the Campground, until we reached the trailhead of The Chapel Trail.

The Chapel Trail to Saas-Fee takes you through a remarkable journey, passing by 15 small chapels and shrines that were constructed between 1708 and 1711. These chapels depict the mysteries of the Psalter and the three Catholic rosaries: the Joyous, the Sorrowful, and the Glorious. Bernhard, deeply connected to this trail due to its significance to his late mother, wanted to share this experience with us. It was truly enchanting, featuring steps cut into glacier rocks and hiking through serene spruce forests. We took our time, frequently stopping to capture the numerous photo-worthy moments.

After a relaxing break at the hotel, we ascended with the gondola to Plattjen, where we were treated to an unforgettable panoramic view of the entire Saas Fee valley. Our friend Peter Ulli chose to hike instead and joined us in the summit restaurant two hours and 10 minutes later for a drink—an impressive feat!

We opted for Pizzeria Poccalino, an excellent restaurant for tonight's dinner, and our chosen dishes met our expectations.Читать далее
