Where fox and hare greet each other good morning and welcome every wonderful Rigi hiking day, the wildlife trail is presented in cooperation with the Goldau Nature and Animal Park. At 1656 meters above sea level, information boards describe native animals. Set off with your family on a trail search and with some luck and patience you may even find a fox, badger, or squirrel. More frequently encountered are the chamois living on the mountain, which occasionally dare down to the lakeshores. The dreamy Alpine panorama contributes significantly to making your Rigi visit unforgettable.
Notes
