Description

Marmots are cute and fascinating animals. Their piercing warning call is audible far and wide. The diurnal life of these burrowing residents can be well observed on the route. It is interesting when the young are allowed to leave the burrow for the first time.

  • Suitable for children from 4 years old
  • Signs explain the life of the marmots (in German, English, French, Japanese)
  • Various wood sculptures along the path
  • Marmot observation post at Sunnegga
