Location and accessibility
Nestled in idyllic alpine landscape lies the small hamlet <>, embedded between lush meadows and dense forests, below the Simplon Pass road (A9) and near the district of Berisal. The place is easily accessible all year round by car or comfortably by post bus, which offers a direct connection to the valley.

The cozy 3.5-room apartment is located on the 2nd floor of the traditional former customs house, built in 1948, and is accessible via an internal staircase.



Description of the rustic apartment
The apartment combines rustic charm and alpine character through its authentic details. The living spaces are heated with wood stoves, creating a cozy warmth and a homely atmosphere. Additionally, electric direct heating provides comfort. An additional oven is available in the kitchen, making the cooking experience particularly pleasant in the cooler months.

The view from the windows sweeps over the valley and offers a view that is second to none. Here, quiet evenings can be enjoyed with a glass of Valais wine and a piece of dried meat. The apartment includes a cellar and a separate wood shed. Particularly noteworthy is a small room with a wood stove, which used to serve as the customs officer's office - a charming relic from past times.

Another rather unusual highlight is also located in the house: the former prison. This room can serve as an unusual hobby room or simply as an original conversation piece during visits. With a wink, it quickly becomes the favorite attraction for guests - and possibly the best argument for short stays.

This apartment combines the special with the practical and opens up space for individual living amidst a unique mountain landscape.

General information about the Simplon area
The Simplon area extends from the canton of Valais (Brig 684 m) over the pass height (2009 m) down to Gondo (855 m) to Italy and includes the Monte Leone at a height of 3553 m as its centerpiece. Together with the Hübschhorn, Monte Leone is visible from afar. The year-round open pass is praised as one of the most beautiful alpine crossings. The 9-meter-high Simplon Eagle stands as a symbol of vigilance in memory of the "Watch at Simplon" during World War II. For hikers, Simplon offers a fantastic mountain panorama and beautiful tours in summer and winter.
