Caving experience in Melchsee-Frutt

We all love hiking up the mountains, but have you ever wondered what the inside of these mountains looks like?

What’s the plan?

Meet your guide in Melchsee-Frutt (Bergstation) at 09:30.

Under the guidance of Niklaus, you will discover the souterrain of Melchsee-Frutt and explore one of the largest karst caves in Switzerland. We will spend over three hours inside the cave.

Requirements

This activity is accessible to caving beginners, as long as you are fit and not scared of being underground and in the dark!
