A day with a Rigi alpine Farmer
Description
Experience customs, tradition and culture on the Rigi at first hand. Franz Toni Kennel provides an insight into the life of an alpine guide on the Rigi. An eventful day with lots of activity and enjoyment.
After the impressive ride up the mountain, the visitors to Mt. Rigi are greeted at the top by Franz Toni or another member of the team. After walking for about 20 minutes, they reach the "Chäserenholz" mountain hut, where they are immersed in the traditional way of life of alpine farmers. After enjoying a good glass of alpine punch, the members of the group learn how to make a Rigi mountain cheese for themselves. A walk through a lightly wooded area and across lush alpine meadows rounds of the visit to the Rigi farmer.
