- Feel on top of the mountain, on top of the mountain.
- Sing 'laaaaaast Christmas I gave you my heaaaart' next to the chalet where Wham shot the video.
- Raise your heartbeat on the suspension bridge.
Wallis is a wonderful region in the south of Switzerland, where there is lots to see, do and discover. On this two-day road trip, you will drive to a small town called Saas-Grund, where you take the cable card all the way up the Hohsaas. On your way, you can spot groundhogs bathing in the sun. Once arrived on top, your jaw will drop when you see the amazing views around. On day two you will visit the place where George Michael frolicked in the snow chasing a girl while singing "last Christmas, I gave you my heart, but the very next day you gave it away". And above all that you will walk a very cool trail with suspension bridges. I hope you are not afraid of heights! Enjoy!

Laaaaast Christmas! Wham and a mountain adventure in Saas-Almagell.
I bet you have already noticed there are about a million cool spots to explore in the Saas-Valley. This part of Switzerland is not only good for skiïng but also for summer activities. And active you will get today because you will walk the 'erlebnisweg' today. Which translates as 'adventure trail'. And if there is one thing we like when we are road-tripping, it is seeking new adventures! Before you go, check the weather. The trail can be very slippery so better don't go when it is raining. Also, it is important to wear suitable footwear. You are in the mountains, don't underestimate a walk, even if it is a touristy one.
