20% or 10% cheaper for the Grimmimutz adventure. We tell you everything you need to know about the hiking trail along the first interactive Grimmimutz fairy tale.
Welcome to the new Grimmimutz adventure! As you hike along the six-kilometre mountain trail, you will learn to sing Miss Helvetia's yodelling song, the GrimmiJutz, at nine stations using the interactive app. At the end of the route, you take up your practised Jutz and take part in the big competition.
Travel comfortably by train to «Oey-Diemtigen» and continue by bus to the bus stop «Schwenden i.D., Grimmialp». From there you can reach the Grimmialpberg cable car valley station in about five minutes on foot.
Yodelling experience GrimmiJutz
The themed trail is all about the new Grimmimutz adventure: The evil pepper witch pronounces a curse and turns the Grimmialp into a gloomy place. The Grimmimutz receives help from an elf who gives him a special gift, yodelling. From then on, the Grimmimutz climbs up to the alp every day to sing his Jutz. With his voice, he dispels the negative energy, makes the birds chirp happily and, with more and more people doing the same, succeeds in bringing the sun back to the Grimmialp.
Nine posts, a yodelling song by Miss Helvetia and the accompanying app
Everyone is invited to learn the GrimmiJutz and help bring colour to the valley. Along the way you will solve puzzles, learn about the specialities of the Diemtigtal and learn how to yodel from the famous Diemtigtaler Miss Helvetia. The "Diemtigtal" app guides you from post to post along the mountain hiking trail down into the valley. The "Diemtigtal" app can be downloaded from the Android Play Store and the Apple App Store. It is in dialect / German and is free of charge. It's best to download the app to your smartphone at home and travel with a full mobile phone battery.
