Ridge trail
A fantastic panoramic view, educational insight, impressive view from above
The ridge trail on the Niederhorn is a memorable experience. On a well-secured route, it leads over steep, rugged rocks and allows you to look down freely into the Justistal Valley far below. For anyone who gazes into the distance, the sublime and breathtaking panorama with the Eiger, Moench and Jungfrau, the Blüemlisalp Massif, the Niesen, and lots more, opens up.
Now, which one of them is the Blüemlisalp, that is so much celebrated in song? Billboards along the ridge trail provide copious information for visitors large and small alike, about the mountain and Alpine scenery, as well as its flora and fauna.
