    The Rellstal is one of the most beautiful nature and plant reserves. The valley is roughly 1500 m high and completely surrounded by the Alps. Numerous gypsum sinkholes characterize the landscape. Over time the region’s great amounts of gypsum, which is slightly soluble in water, have formed underground caves that create sinkholes on the surface as soon as they collapse. They are surrounded by the bizarre rock formations of the Rätikon.
