Does my dog have to be kept on a lead in the Aletsch Arena?

Destination

Yes, the cantonal regulations apply, which stipulate that dogs must be kept on a lead in built-up areas. This means that dogs must be kept on a lead along the entire Aletsch Promenade and in all residential areas on the plateau (Riederalp, Bettmeralp, Fiescheralp). Dogs must also be leashed in crowded places. 

Other areas where dogs must be kept on a lead: 

  • Golf course/Trail of Lights (Riederalp) 
  • Baschweri Forest Promenade (Bettmeralp)
