Leukerbad

On an initially paved road, you turn into the forest at the Lärchenwald house and ride towards the Weidstübli restaurant. Soon the terrain changes to gravel and after a good 500 meters of altitude with a steady climb through a light forest area, you reach the Majingalp via Alpe Folljeret. If you want, you can already refresh yourself here at the mountain restaurant, or you continue the last 2 km uphill to the Flüealp, where you definitely should not miss cheese and bread. The signposted descent leads back to Leukerbad on the same path.
