  • Image 1

Description

The Betelberg gondola railway brings hikers to this diverse hiking region. And it soon becomes clear that everything evolves around alpine culture up here!
Cow Mona, goat Flöckli and marmot Moritz tell the tale of their everyday lives in twelve decorative theme gondolas. And by the sound chapel all are encouraged to make music as they walk the marmot trail down to the mid station – with yet another informative lynx trail leading to Wallegg. The new Alps Leiterli round path introduces you to episodes of Lenk’s fascinating history.
