What to Expect

What to Expect
This trip is built for active hikers who enjoy a real challenge. Saturday is a demanding 6-hour hike — the Klingenstock chairlift is closed until 13 June so we hike up on foot (extra 2 hours, around 600m of climb), then traverse the iconic ridge to Fronalpstock with views of ten Swiss lakes. Sunday is much gentler: a beginner-friendly 3-hour cave tour at Hölloch with all gear provided. You'll be part of a small, friendly group of 15 with a dedicated TravelTribe coordinator across both days.
