In the past, and even now, a suone was used to irrigate agricultural land where there was little water available locally. The Suonen were of central importance for the development and cultivation of the entire Valais.In Bellwald, too, there were these suonen or water pipes. You can reach the suonen of Bellwald by taking the chairlift from Gassen to the Fleschen middle station. From here you walk up to the play lake. Then walk back to the Fleschen middle station and take the chairlift back to Gassen.
