- Description
-
Large-scale forest clearing and a destructive torrent caused landslides. Only an extensive large-scale project with elaborate countermeasures and partly massive interventions in nature and landscape provided a remedy.The Heinzenberg adventure trail tells all this and much more. At more than a dozen information points, young and old alike are given a lot of exciting background knowledge.A free hiking guide with lots of additional information is available at the Glaspass and Obergmeind access points. There is a well-equipped barbecue area at Lüschersee, firewood is available.
Any trail closures/restrictions or diversions can be found here.
