Thematic Trail

The forest serves many important purposes, such as supplying the air we breathe and offering protection against avalanches and erosion. The forest nature trail between Waldspitz and Bort station has five information boards explaining the importance of trees as an integral part of our ecological system. The moderately steep ascent leads you through lush mountain meadows - the red carpet of blossoming Alpine roses stands in stark contrast to the green meadows of the valley and the glistening ice of the glaciers behind. The trail takes you further through the shaded woods and across vividly blossoming flower meadows to the Mühlebach waterfalls and in the direction of Nodhalten to Bort.
