Nestled between Hornfluh and Giferhorn lies the lovely Turbach Valley in the Saanenland. Based on some place names such as Turbach "The Hothead," it can be assumed that the valley was already known to the Celts. Everything the ancestors needed to live at that time, they had to produce themselves. Along the themed trail, 14 panels provide insight into the valley's peculiarities. They explain place names, history, or geological characteristics.
