Meeresböden im Schweizer Nationalpark

Seabeds in the Swiss National Park

“Where the Sea Once Shaped the Mountains”

Anyone hiking through the Val Mingèr today would hardly imagine that this impressive landscape was once covered by the sea millions of years ago. Together with glaciologist Dr. Felix Keller, we’ll discover the fascinating history of the Lower Engadine Dolomites on an easy hike and learn how ancient seabeds continue to shape the landscape to this day.

The starting point is the Schmelzra Mining Museum. From there, the trail leads via the Champs Nouvs to Prada da Mingèr and on to the Funtanas—accompanied by exciting stories and surprising insights into the geological history of the Swiss National Park.

An easy hike for young and old alike that beautifully combines nature, science, and wonder.
