Experience an unforgettable adventure in the Ratschings-Jaufen hiking area at an altitude of 1,800 meters! Take the panoramic cable car directly to the mountain station, where the circular trail begins. The trail is easily manageable in about 45 minutes, even with a stroller – with only around 50 meters of elevation gain. Playtime at the MountainAdventureWorld is free and flexible – perfect for both adults and children.
Explore the fascinating world of marmots and ants along the trail, climb exciting play structures, and cross panoramic bridges with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. Special highlights include marmot tunnels to walk through, the SoundWorld with rustic wooden instruments, the KneippWorld for a barefoot experience in cool water and on various materials, as well as the GiantSlide and the WoodenBallTrack.
And that's not all! The petting zoo will bring joy with the animals, while the fun water games provide refreshing entertainment. In between, you can relax in one of the cozy, child-friendly alpine huts and enjoy a snack, refreshments, or coffee and cake.
