You simply can't miss the stars of the trail. It is not for nothing that they belong to the family of the big bears. Set out and discover the six big bears, find out where they live and how big they can grow. Once you have found and measured all the bears, you will find out which is the biggest big bear.

Author’s recommendation

Present the complete booklet at the Arosa Tourism guest information desk (sports and congress centre in the village) and receive a big-bear surprise.
