This excursion to the countryside appeals to guests who enjoy hiking off the beaten track and are in average to good physical condition. An unforgettable experience and surprising views are guaranteed.

Hiking up a genuine Swiss mountain

This guided day trip appeals to enterprising guests with an average to very good level of fitness, who enjoy going on a guided and demanding mountain hike of 300 to 2000 meters in altitude and a walking distance of 10 to 20 kilometers. Sure-footedness is required and a good head for heights is necessary for many ascents and descents. With a little luck also animal watching is possible. For some trips the way back can be shortened by means of a cable railway beginning at half altitude. The departure and the endpoint of the hike is different in each case. Gear consists of mountain boots with good profile, a daypack with snacks and beverage, rain and sun protection, hat or hood, maybe gloves and walking sticks.
