The Niedere with its partly tree-free, slightly sloping meadows and super thermal is an ideal starting point for paragliders and very popular in summer.

Panoramic Loop with Views of Bezau

Highlight • Viewpoint

Easy to walk path with a fantastic view of the valley with Bezau. Either climb up or take the cable car. You can stop off at the Panorama Restaurant and the nearby Theodul Chapel is also worth seeing.

All the way up with the chairlift. Walked around upstairs, watched the paragliders take off. Had a little refreshment 😄🥧... Then walked down to the middle station and sat comfortably in the valley 😂😄💖. Last day of vacation fully savored.

Nice public round with children. First floating through the forest with the swing lift, then watching the paragliders take off. And they can also do the panorama trail 😊
