Simme Falls / Siebenbrunnen

A new road (N 6) is planned to run through a tunnel 4km /2mi long into the Valais. Another road leads southeast from Lenk up the Simme valley, past a cableway to Metsch (1,480 m/4,856ft), to Höhenhaus (5km/3mi; 1,103 m/3,619ft), at the head of the valley. From here a footpath (one hour) ascends past the Simme Falls to the huts on the Räzliberg (1,404 m/4,607ft; restaurant), near which the Siebenbrunnen (1,446 m/4,744ft), the main source of the Simme, gushes out of seven clefts in the rock walls of the Fluhhorn (2,139 m/7,018ft).
