Rosswald

Rosswald straddles a high alpine slope above the Rhône valley in Valais, and its south-facing position has shaped the settlement into a car-free mountain retreat above Brig. Reached by cable car from Ried-Brig, it occupies a quiet shelf between open pastureland and the higher slopes of the Bernese Alps. In summer, marked walking routes cross the surrounding alpine terrain; winter brings local ski slopes directly around the settlement. Down in Brig, the 17th-century Stockalper Palace recalls the town's role on the historic Simplon route between central Europe and Italy.
