    The thematic route is located above the Schellen-Ursli village of Guarda. The route leads from Guarda to Plan dal Növ, over to Clüs, to Lajet and back down to Guarda. The route covers highlights from the book such as the bell distribution, the adventurous climb to the Maiensäss, or the joyful bell procession «Chalandamarz». The experience is always the focus. Thus, the whole story is not told, but the imagination of the visitors is given plenty of freedom.

    Author’s recommendation

    Before or after the hike, you can visit the Schellen-Ursli Museum in Guarda, which is located opposite Hotel Meisser.
