Cultural hike through the enchanted ravine with castle ruins, exciting insights into cheese-making and a generous buffet with around 50 specialties - nature and enjoyment in perfect combination!

Hike, discover, enjoy: This unique tour combines exercise in nature with genuine cheese culture - a perfect combination for anyone who enjoys being outdoors and also wants to treat themselves to something special in culinary terms.

We start our hike through a fantastic, cooling ravine - a little insider tip in the region. The path is enchanted, varied and leads us past an impressive castle ruin with a view. Always with us: our hiking guide, who tells exciting stories about the nature, culture and history of the area.

The exercise in the fresh air is followed by a well-deserved culinary highlight: in Saland, we immerse ourselves in the world of natürli zürioberland ag. During a guided tour through the impressive claystone vaulted cellars, we gain exciting insights into the history of cheese-making in the Zurich Oberland. The natürli cellar master will show us in an entertaining way how cheese is made, matured and cared for.

Finally, we enjoy a generous cheese buffet with around 50 regional cheese specialties in the rustic natürli alpine hut. We will indulge in culinary delights in an atmospheric setting - and if you want, you can also keep an eye on your diet, because this is not about gluttony, but about conscious enjoyment!
