Thanks to tree sponsorships, ten of the oldest and mightiest silver firs in the entire Bernese Oberland have been protected in the Boltigwald and preserved against commercial exploitation. Forest President Heinz Burri discovered the venerable fir trees, which are estimated to be 250-300 years old, and secured their protection and preservation.

The aim of the tree trail is to sensitize the population to extraordinary natural values. The preservation of ecologically valuable trees and the promotion of natural wood as a natural habitat and food source for animals and plants are the top priorities. On the Regenmoos - Niderhore mountain trail, you will reach the imposing silver firs after approx. 30 minutes.

Directions
Mountain trail: Regenmoos-Niderhore, approx. 30 minutes
Access: Road towards Scheitwegen approx. 1 km to the fourth hairpin bend, signpost at the Forsthüttli. From there, follow the signs along the forest path, approx. 10 minutes on foot.
