Bellwald is a picturesque mountain village in the canton of Valais, located at about 1600 m above sea level. It's the highest municipality in Goms and is known for its traditional Valais wooden houses and seven well-preserved chapels. Bellwald offers attractive year-round recreational opportunities, including a family-friendly ski area in winter (up to 2550 m above sea level) and diverse hiking trails in summer. The village is a popular destination for nature lovers and provides beautiful views of the surrounding Alps. Bellwald is connected to the valley village of Fürgangen by a cable car, making it easily accessible without a car. The Matterhorn-Gotthard-Bahn also stops in Fürgangen, which connects the area to Fiesch approximately every hour.

“I loved the canyon swing. It felt like a once‑in‑a‑lifetime experience. The team were friendly and helpful, kept me calm when I started to panic, and gave me a little push to finally get off. Thank you.”
“No doubt, this was the most incredible and wonderful experience I have ever had. Anyone visiting Grindelwald should definitely give it a try.”
“Lucas was a great guide. The activity is so fun - you need a lot of nerve and absolutely cannot be afraid of heights. Bring water. Highly recommend.”
“Quality day with valentine and airtime paragliding. Couldn’t have made my 30th any more special.”
“Amazing activity for the whole family.”
“I decided to do this after seeing the paragliders land in Interlaken, and i was on my first solo trip so thought why not! I was nervous beforehand, but my pilot, Robin, put me at ease and was very kind. It’s actually a peaceful experience (we did do one fun trick which i loved, and you can ask for more if you want a thrill), and the views are incredible. We flew for quite a long time due to the thermals. I recommend to anyone :) no experience needed!”
