Walserweg - Etappe 18
The route climbs steeply through the Schlappintobel and its forest into the Saas Alpine region, then crosses the Rätschenjoch — a karst landscape and former mining area — where views open wide to both north and south. Scattered Walser settlements cling to the hillsides of the Gafiatal, reminders that these people cultivated remote, inhospitable terrain in the late Middle Ages, before the trail descends to the compact village of St. Antönien Platz.
