Ibex tour in the Weisstannen valley

Deer, roe deer, bearded vultures, chamois, ibex - these wild animals feel at home in the Tectonic Arena Sardona UNESCO World Heritage Site. During the Ibex Tour you will hike through the secluded Weisstannental valley, past 80-metre-high waterfalls. A Swiss Ranger will guide you through the wild nature. The Swiss Ranger will tell you how the animals live and what is special about their habitat. You will be taken to places where you can observe the animals in the wild. With a bit of luck, you will spot the majestic mountain inhabitants that many of us only know from photos.
