municipality in the district of Brig, Canton of Valais, Switzerland

About Brig

Brig used to be the most important transport hub in the region, as the old Lötschberg line fromBerne, the Simplon line fromDomodossolaandMilan, the InterRegio trains fromLausanneas well as the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn towardsAndermattandZermattall converge here. Since the opening of the new Lötschberg base tunnel, a lot of this has been diverted toVisp, making Brig quieter than it used to be. Nevertheless it remains an important town, and all international trains (EC) still stop here as the last stop before Italy, and not in Visp.
