Stone dikes are female ibexes, they belong to the genus of goats and live at the timberline and higher, therefore between 1,500 to 3,000 meters. Occasionally up to 3,500 meters. Here at the Niederhorn they live mainly in the Justistal.

Stones are often seen on the Niederhorn, ibexes are less common. In winter, the stone rocks come down to the middle station or a little further. The ibex, however, hardly. In comparison: Gitzi occasionally go down to Lake Thun.

The breeding season in the Alps is December and January, while the deer and deer have their mating season in September and October. There are around 45,000 animals in the Alps.

We were very surprised, suddenly several stone cracks stood directly on the wayside and could be photographed. Beautiful animals - such as these - can hardly be found in the wild and by the presence of Wanderer they are no longer shy.

Panoramic hiking trail on the narrow ridge from Niederhorn to Gemmenalphorn, view on both sides into the valley, Lake Thun, the Alps beyond. Not too difficult, should be feasible for normal hikers with the appropriate footwear without difficulty. (a little fitness does not hurt)
