The Marmot Expedition

Accompanied by a ranger, participants will visit and observe marmot families near the mountain station Leiterli. Alongside observing the animals, the ranger will provide insight into the life of marmots: hibernation, food, enemies, communication, and body structure are topics that will be explored playfully, with visual materials and comparisons.

The highlight is not to be missed: binoculars out, focus, and observe the marmot family from afar. A true natural adventure for the whole family!
