Erlebnis Energie Entlebuch

The energy trail is a hiking path that connects the various stations of the Entlebuch energy experience park. There are six experience platforms in total, oriented around six energy sources: Earth & Moor, River & Water, Light & Sun, Air & Wind, Gas & Fire, Forest & Wood. In the sun garden, experimenters can try out a burning glass; by the impressive wind turbines at Feldmoos, you can compose melodies on a pipe seesaw using your own body; and in the Mettelimoos moor area, you can enjoy the beneficial effects of the moor in the foot bath. Further, the drilling platform at Finsterwald informs about the only site in Switzerland where natural gas was ever extracted — 5,289 m deep. In the Chilewald forest, wooden displays show the energy consumption of houses with various energy standards. Following the water along the canal path leads you ultimately to the small hydropower plant Farb, built in 1903.
