Discover fossils, experience and see the tremendous power of Alpine formation up close!
Details
Description
On the approximately 4 km long stroller-friendly ridge trail, there is plenty to marvel at for young and old alike. Lined up like in an art gallery, fossils and weathering phenomena can be admired, touched, and experienced along the trail.
At over 15 stations, visitors gain exciting insights into Alpine formation and the power of tectonics, as well as general and interesting information on geology. The trail starts at the Maschgenkamm mountain station and circles around the "Ziger." The second section leads from Maschgenkamm in switchbacks down to Maschgenlücke and from there on flat terrain to the Prodkamm mountain station. Along the way, "Tectonics" loungers or benches invite you to enjoy the fantastic panoramic views (including of the Churfirsten and Lake Walen).
There is also a rest area with a fire pit for a cozy picnic or campfire. A wonderful spot in the Sardona Tectonic Arena, which has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site as the world's best place for its visibility of Alpine mountain formation.
Hidden Gem
The first altitude meters can be comfortably covered with the BergJet gondola from Tannenboden to Maschgenkamm. With panoramic views, the ride to the summit is already a highlight.
