General Information about Bürchen
The Valais mountain village Bürchen is exposed to the sun on a terrace high above the Rhone Valley at the foot of the Moosalp and the junction Visp. With tailored summer and winter experiences for children, the region has developed into a small but fine family holiday destination. From spring to autumn, the Moosalp region is a charming hiking paradise. In winter, the holiday region is a family-friendly winter sports area. A small part of the municipal area is used as settlement area, half is forested, and a large part is still used for agriculture. Bürchen has a clear scattered settlement character, with many small, autonomous hamlets shaping the townscape. Bürchen includes the Moosalp winter sports area, which is connected to that of the municipality of Törbel. Kindergarten and primary school are located on site.
