Experience the biosphere reserve in a whole new way and marvel at the nearby mountains at high altitudes.

This stage deals with the southern side of the Napf and its wonderful sun-tanned slopes. From Langnau we gondola delightfully along the Ilfis and soon arrive in Trubschachen, the hearty Emmental village with the seductive scent of pastries in the air. Having escaped from the local cookie land of milk and honey, we climb a lonely valley landscape that leads us higher and higher into the hills until we reach the border mountain "Turner" that marks the transition to the Entlebuch in Lucerne. Here, at 1200 meters, the panorama of the valley opens up with the rock arena of the mountains behind it. 99 curves carry us down to Escholzmatt. From now on, we enjoy the most beautiful altitudes through the UNESCO biosphere reserve and its scenic gems. Deep ditches open up below us, and the mighty shoulders of the Napf carry us safely to the village of Entlebuch, which awaits us for a well-deserved snack.
