On the approximately 3.6 km circular trail, there is an opportunity from April to June to discover some of the native orchid species in our area. The climatic conditions in this area, as well as the soil composition and proximity to a small forest, as well as ecological management, favor a rich settlement of various types of plants. The trained eye will surely also find other herbs or plants along the roadside and on the meadows here, which have otherwise almost disappeared. The open panoramic view at many points invites you to pause and discover. There are also seating areas along the path at intervals for resting.
For your information: Native orchids are rare to very rare in our area. Therefore, all enjoy special protection under the Federal Species Protection Ordinance. Picking or removing them is prohibited.

General note:
Especially in autumn, it is important to note that fallen leaves on the ground can conceal unevenness, roots, stones, or holes in the path. After thunderstorms or rainstorms, trees may still fall or branches may fall down later. Particularly in adverse weather conditions, natural paths can have muddy and slippery sections. Not all rocks or cliffs are secured with ropes or railings. Surefootedness is required in some places. You should expect such path impairments when hiking. If you think certain sections of the path are impassable for you, you should bypass them.
NOTE:
We strive to announce all closures caused by forestry work or hunting groups on this platform. Nevertheless, there are situations where hiking trails are closed, and we may not have been informed. If you unexpectedly encounter a path closure or detour, please follow the instructions for your own safety.
