Alpine Encounters: Walking with Marmots

Discover the charming Marmots Trail in Spielboden, high above Saas-Fee, and enjoy a memorable encounter with one of the Alps’ most iconic inhabitants. Combining spectacular mountain scenery with fascinating wildlife, this family-friendly experience offers a unique opportunity to observe marmots in their natural environment.

Begin with a scenic gondola ride to Spielboden at over 2,400 metres above sea level. Accompanied by a mountain guide, follow the Marmots Trail through the alpine landscape while learning about the marmots’ habits, burrows, hibernation cycle, and social behaviour. Depending on conditions, there may also be the opportunity to feed the marmots by hand.
