Only a few kilometers long and still quite immodest, the Rotten River is located here, very close to its source on the Rhone Glacier further up. The hiking trail down (or up) to Oberwald runs very close to the river, which is more of a mountain stream here.

Not accessible as a normal jogger. But doable as a mountain runner from both Fieschertal and Bellwald.
