Schweizerischer Nationalpark - "Would you like to see things that you don't normally see?" This question on the poster in front of the National Park centre sounds puzzling. But the Champlönch children's trail explains.

The wonderfully simple and beautiful hike includes crossing "the long meadow" (Champlönch) to Alp Grimmels, zigzagging down to the Ova da Val Ftur and then running comfortably along the slopes of Piz dal Fuorn.

The short tour (1.5 - 2.5 h) ends in the romantic Hotel Il Fuorn, in former times a favourite stopover for travellers, mule trains and smugglers and today a kind of base camp for visitors to the National Park. It is still the only hotel in the 100 year old nature reserve.
