From Blatten, hike via Rischinerwald to the Gebidem Bridge. On the other side of the valley, follow the downhill path over Gragg towards the Massa Gorge. On the Massa path carved into the rock, you then hike along the Riederi Suone. The themed route provides impressive information about the old irrigation systems of Valais. The well-restored Suone and information boards offer insights into the history, construction, and maintenance of the Suone systems, as well as related customs and myths. High above the Massa Gorge, breathtaking views open up repeatedly into the depths, of the Rhone Valley, and the Valais Alps. Attention: The path runs partly at great height, crosses narrow bridges and exposed sections. Surefootedness and a head for heights are required! There is a risk of slipping in wet conditions! Via Rieschwald and Roti Flue you reach Ried-Mörel. From there, you take the cable car down to Mörel or up to Riederalp.
