Hike Details
Let's go to paths ranging from defence walls of world war 1, through castle ruins, and amazing landscape.
It contains some small section of T4 which means path is secured, but sometimes you have to use your hands for balance. You can see the photos of the section here - https://www.komoot.com/highlight/4482755
This is a loop hike.
We will finish the hike near Deinkick Langenbruck - Solarbob & Seilpark. We can then have a fun toboggan run at Solar powered Europe's only toboggan run with a 540 degree roundabout. The track is 1KM in length and we can do multiple rounds. Track will be closed in case of bad weather, and as of now, it looks like that won't be the case.
26Summits Challenge - https://26summits.ch/
This is 5th year of challenge. You collect points for every summit you reach and can take part in the raffle for great competition prizes. The harder you hike, the higher you will climb the rankings. Participants who have climbed all 26 peaks can take part in the draw for the main prize – a guided Matterhorn tour worth CHF 3,000, sponsored by Red Bull. Pack your hiking backpack and off you go!
