Wildlife Trail on Mt. Niederbauen
Overview
Intro
Hikers on the 11-kilometer nature trail between Niederbauen and Stockhütte know what to look for: Markers along the trail impart essential information on the local fauna, their habitat and way of life, and they point out where certain animals can be spotted.
Along the 11-kilometer-long didactic nature trail Emmetten, there are all sorts of signs that explain the natural habitat and habits of the local fauna. Sometimes one may even be lucky to actually come across one of the numerous animals that live here, such as marmots, red deer, chamois, ibex, eagles, and black grouse.In order to be assured of sightings, though, it is recommended to book a tour, especially an early morning tour. A ranger will show you how and where to observe the animals, turning it into an unforgettable adventure.
