Quotes from famous women from the Valais provide the backdrop to this enjoyable walk from Brandalp to Unterbäch. The first is located directly opposite the Alpenrösli restaurant, at the top station of the chairlift leading up from Unterbäch. The hiking trail is signposted separately with purple signs and initially follows the Brandalp road for a few minutes before branching off onto the nature trail at the bend above Ta. Along the route, you will come across 15 signs featuring quotes from well-known women such as Iris von Roten, Camille Rast and Germaine Seewer. Incidentally, the latest quote is from the Valais Federal Councillor Viola Amherd. The words are intended to encourage reflection whilst hiking. Furthermore, the trail is meant to remind us that women in Unterbäch, the ‘Rütli of Swiss women’, were allowed to vote 14 years before women were officially granted the right to vote. The trail is on easy and safe terrain, but still covers an elevation gain of around 450 metres. We therefore recommend walking boots and, if needed, walking poles. If you prefer to walk uphill, you can also start the well-signposted trail at the village square in Unterbäch. In winter, the popular trail is accessible on snowshoes (Brandalp Trail).
