Since the beginning of high-altitude mountaineering, St. Niklaus in the Mattertal has been considered the true center of mountain guiding. Here, history was written – by brave pioneers who first climbed the majestic peaks of the Valais Alps and thus laid the foundation for a long tradition.

The Heimat- and Bergführermuseum – lived mountain history

To do justice to this significant past, the Heimat- and Bergführermuseum St. Niklaus was created in the historic Meierturm, the oldest building in the Mattertal. In its lovingly designed exhibitions, the eventful history of the mountain guides comes alive. Visitors immerse themselves in exciting stories of daring first ascents, ancient equipment, and the lives of people who have dedicated their hearts to the mountains.

The quartz of St. Niklaus – a piece of natural history

Another pride of the village is the famous St. Niklaus quartz, a high-quality natural stone of unmistakable color and hardness. Until 2005, it was commercially mined here and still characterizes many buildings in the region today. The stone stands symbolically for the strength and endurance that characterizes life in the Alps.

Family-friendly vacation – between Grächen and the Alpe Jungen

St. Niklaus is part of the child-friendly Grächen holiday region, which delights in winter with a snow-sure ski area and around 44 kilometers of pistes. In summer, the popular Suonen hikes along old waterways invite you to unforgettable nature experiences – ideal for families, connoisseurs, and hiking enthusiasts.

A special highlight is the Alpe Jungen, which can be reached by cable car. High above the valley, a breathtaking panoramic view of the Mattertal opens up – a place where peace, nature, and originality meet in perfect harmony.
