You will learn how, around 10,000 years ago, prehistoric people in search of food penetrated the still glaciated Diemtigtal and found shelter under the Eyeriedschopf in Zwischenflüh. Excavations of stone and bone implements attest to the human presence in the Diemtigtal in the Middle Stone Age – an important hook for the Diemtigtal History and Culture Trail.
There is a large covered barbecue area at the starting point. Reserve it as a group at the Diemtigtal Nature Park office.
