Four years of planning and approval procedures, nine different routes, 24 different landowners, 24 personal discussions, three land managers, one information evening, ten inspections and five months of construction: these are the figures behind the realization of the Loichitrail.

In 2018, Lötschental Infrastruktur AG began planning the Loichitrail. The first step was to survey the topography and determine the ideal route for mountain bikers. In the next step, the relevant landowners were contacted and asked for permission, but not with resounding success. As a result, the route had to be adjusted a total of eight times.

The Loichitrail is already integrated on the web map of the Singletrail Map: map.ride.ch
