For more Swiss Family Fun, go to the Swiss National Park, one of the first national parks in Europe, and now the only national park in Switzerland. It is also the largest protected area of the country and is part of the Worldwide UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. It is a strict nature reserve dogs are not permitted, you may not leave the pathways, disturb the flora and fauna, or light a fire or sleep outside the Chamanna Cluozza (the mountain hut in the park). Leave No Trace rules to apply, be sure to take any garbage home with you. What you can do is take a guided walk to discover a whole new world where the park is home to red deer, ibex, marmots, mountain rabbits, and snakes. Visit the Schmelzra Museum, with a mining exhibit and bear exhibit. The park’s last indigenous bear was killed nearby in 1904. Stop at the National Park Centre in the Planta-Wildenberg Castle with exhibitions and a shop, or take in a film about the park in the auditorium. Learn how we can protect regions like the Swiss National Park and be part of the solution instead of the problem.
