The rare beauty blooms
The Southern Alpine tulip is as rare as winning the lottery. Not so in Törbel. The extremely rare tulip feels at home in the sunny mountain slopes of the Moosalpregion. With the first mild rays of May sunshine, small golden flower heads open up on several mountain meadows and bring the first splashes of color to nature. We take a closer look at the southern alpine tulip.

"Bärgüf 2021 will be different - more emotional".
In 2016, Patrick Gruber and colleagues from the Lions Club launched the "Bärgüf" charity velo race. The fundraising event from Stalden via Törbel to Moosalp supports people with cancer and is a permanent fixture on the Upper Valais agenda. Corona does not allow large events to be held. In keeping with the motto #gibnitüf, "Bärgüf" will nevertheless take place in 2021 - and it will be more emotional and longer than ever before. We tell the Bärgüf story from the beginning.

Snow at the touch of a button
On Saturday, December 18, the Moosalpregion starts the winter season. With forests covered in deep snow. The slopes are prepared for our skiing pleasure - also with artificial snow. Shortly before the start of the season, we take a look behind the scenes of the silent makers of the white artificial snow carpet.
"Little Scotland" in the Moosalpregion

"Moosalp is a place of power."
The path of life has taken them away from the Moosal region. Because of work, they now live in Basel instead of Bürchen - or in Thurgau instead of Törbel. In their hearts, however, the Moosalpregion remains their home forever. This is also the case for Jan Karlen. In his case, it was his parents who emigrated to Zurich. Today, Jan says about himself: "I'm a homesick Terbjer Chieli!

Handicraft with character from the Moosalp region
It is the old familiar smell of leather that makes many a "terbji" reminisce when he enters the small shoemaker's shop in the heart of the village. Back when there seemed to be so much future and so little past. Not much has changed over the years in the workshop in Fällach - cowbells, shoes for repair, bell straps - there is a kind of "disorder in order" with which only the artist himself knew and the passion for the craft was literally palpable - until today.
