Snowshoe trail village Marbach

UNESCO Biosphäre Entlebuch -

The route starts at the valley station of Sportbahnen Marbachegg. Here you first cross the road to Hotel Sporting, because behind it the trail first leads idylically along the Schonbach. After approx. 800 m under the bridge, then turn left after another 200 m. Here begins the ascent to Sidenmoos, where a sugar refinery stood until 100 years ago. Once at the top, you enjoy a wide view over the snow-covered “Marbacher Boden”. Then continue along the path. After a few meters, you cross the ski slope; caution is advised. After a short descent, you pass the "Schrattenschanze". Marbach is an important training center for nordic young athletes in Central Switzerland. The ski jump facility, which even has a drag lift, was opened in December 1991 and has been much used since. Then the trail leads further to the children's lift and back to the starting point.
