Walser Legends Trail, Triesenberg
A special themed trail
The Triesenberg Walser Legends Trail was opened in spring 2007 and expanded in the following years. This created a unique circular trail that can also be walked in stages. This very special themed trail is intended to bring the history and legends of the Walsers on Triesenberg closer to locals and guests. At the stations along the route, a selection from the rich treasure trove of legends is told. On the educational family hike, playgrounds and barbecue areas invite you to linger and enjoy. The numerous legendary and animal figures and play equipment along the trail impress and delight children too.
The trail leads through a unique cultural landscape with colorful flora and offers a unique view. Triesenberg was only permanently settled in the 13th century by immigrant Valaisans. They shaped the cultural landscape through their clearing activities. The stables and hay huts scattered throughout the area are evidence of the former way of farming. The hay harvested in the summer was fed to the stables after returning from the Maiensäss. The farmer moved from stable to stable like a nomad.
