The relatively new suspension bridge between Naters and Bitsch is only around 40 metres long, but offers an impressive view of the Massa Gorge.
This bridge opens up a connection that is particularly popular between spring and autumn.
The suspension bridge is right on the doorstep, so to speak, as it can be reached on a short hike from Naters via Hegdorn.
The way back leads along the popular Rote Meile, the former railway line of the FO-train, which has been converted into a promenade. Alternatively, you can also take the path along the river Rhone.











Start from Naters via Klosi in the direction of Hegdorn. From there, continue to the suspension bridge. The trail is not easy to find, but it is well signposted. The trail starts at the hamlet of "Hegdorn" and leads you down towards the Massaschlucht gorge. From the suspension bridge, you reach the bottom of the valley at Bitsch in ten minutes. From there you continue along the popular Red Mile promenade back to Naters.

Da
Sturdy shoes, clothing suitable for the weather, sun and rain protection, as well as sufficient supplies of food and drinks, should there be no refreshment stops or shopping facilities available or open. Although the trail is very well marked throughout, you should always have a suitable hiking map with you for safety reasons. Take sticks or other aids with you.
Despite the "untraceable" marking of the hiking trails, we recommend for safety reasons to always have an appropriate hiking map with you, so that you can quickly find your way to a safe area in case of a thunderstorm or emergency, for example.
Especially in autumn, you should also be aware that leaves lying on the ground can hide bumps, roots, stones or holes in the path. After storms, trees can still fall over or branches can fall down. Especially in adverse weather conditions, muddy and slippery passages can occur on natural paths. You have to expect this kind of path impairment when you go on a hike.
Not all rocks or precipices are secured with ropes or railings. In some cases surefootedness is required. If you are of the opinion that certain sections of the trail are not passable for you, you should avoid them.
