 A highlight for families is the Grimmimutz adventure hiking trail on the Grimmialp at the end of the Diemtigtal valley. 

Based on the children's story by Peter Zahnd about the adventures of the forest man Grimmimutz and the wicked pepper witch, a circular hiking trail with many play stations has been created. Artistic wooden signposts with the inscription "Grimmimutz" mark the entire circular trail, which never gets boring: children read the story of Grimmimutz and discover the beauty of nature in a playful way. Hiking almost happens by itself when curiosity is involved: perhaps behind the next rootstock, the gray hair tuft of Grimmimutz can be seen? If hunger arises, barbecue spots along the way invite you to enjoy a cozy cervelat barbecue. The walking time from the starting point Senggiweid is about 1.5 hours without play stations. Depending on the desire to play, you can also spend the whole day on the trail. If the little adventurers get tired, the hike can be aborted at any time and returned along the Senggibach to the starting point.
