Marmot Wildlife Watching in Heidiland

You will travel up in a group from Flumserberg Tannenboden to Maschgenkamm, where the hike begins. The guide will point out the spots where you can see the marmots. Often, you can hear their distinctive warning whistles from afar.

Marmots are commonly found in the Flumserberg region. The certified Geo Guide Sardona will explain what makes this landscape so special and why it has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The hike ends at Chrüz. From here, you can take the chairlift back to the valley station BergJet. Alternatively, you can opt for a thrilling ride down the Floomzer sledding track or head back on foot.
