The entrance to this tour is above the restaurant Schmuggleralm (1,840m above sea level). First of all, the tour begins at the edge of the valley descent toward Zeblas. The trail then leads through the Pragrond forest to the top of the Pragrond meadows. The story of Murmina and Murmin is told at 10 interactive adventure stations. Tricky puzzles are to be solved, the eagle owl tree to be climbed and the eagle accompanied to the marmot burrow. The path leads over snow-covered meadows back to the village. The walk takes about 45 minutes. The path is illuminated until midnight.
