Set off on the new Grimmimutz adventure and learn to yodel along the way under the guidance of Miss Helvetia.

The path takes you from the upper station of the Grimmialp cable cars back to the valley. With the app, you learn to sing a yodeling song, the GrimmiJutz, along the way. A perfect family day for children from six years old!

What can you expect from the interactive app? Bring color back to the valley with your "Jutz" and free it from the curse of the old witch. Follow the tracks of the first interactive Grimmimutz fairy tale with your phone. Solve puzzles and learn to yodel from Miss Helvetia. The new app offering playfully combines the beautiful mountain landscape with the fairy tale world of Grimmimutz.

Nine stations challenge your skill in solving puzzles, quick swiping with your fingers, and of course yodeling. Discover the forest man in the picturesque forest panorama, catch the witch on her wild ride, or recognize the magical mountain herbs and animal world surrounding you.

At the last station, the highlight awaits you: the GrimmiJutz lounge. Are you ready to loudly sing the GrimmiJutz together?
