Glarnerland lies right in the heart of Switzerland, just 70 km from Zurich-Airport. The exquisite Glarner cuisine make the Glarnerland an ideal holiday area all the year round.
Footpaths crisscross the whole area.
Cable railways take the strain out of the tiring uphill stretches and quickly take you to the marvellous unspoilt world of peace and quiet up in the mountains. Right in the middle of one of the oldest nature reserves in Europe where an experienced eye can observe many a creature in its natural environment, lies the Mettmenalp - an outstanding area for climbers. Trained mountain guides give instructions in climbing and are always ready to take out small groups of climbers - and to risk the dangerous parts with you. Rustic idylls, as created by artists can be both seen and heard. Whether you are an expert or a beginner - Glarnerland has something for everyone in the way of winter sports.
