To whom is this tour recommended?

This tour is for all these travellers recommend, which are keen to explore Switzerland on a shoestring. You don't have to be a an excellent walker! But it is necessary to bring a minimum on condition, which means to be able to walk 60 to 90 minutes without longer breaks. The mountain we visit does not belong to the highest of Switzerland, but is settled in the the real rural nature and off the beaten track! Frienly people, small farms on steep grassfields, refreshing drinks in tiny alp-huts... all this garantees you an unforgettable outdoor day!
Please note:
Weatherconditions in the mountains can change very quickly. Take good walkingshoes, raincoat, suncream and a hat with you!
