Amid old mountain inns, historic alleyways, and unique interactive exhibits, guests can enjoyably discover the history of this Alpine crossing. The focus is on the tradition of the muleteers—a tradition that has shaped Splügen and the Splügen Pass for centuries.
Whether it’s a culinary walking tour, guided tours, dramatic storytelling, music, or gatherings in the village: The anniversary celebration combines history, activity, and enjoyment into an experience for visitors, locals, families, and culture enthusiasts.
A varied program of side events awaits you:
- In "Stall 13," as part of the series "Vi mando nel nome di Dio – Documents Tell the Story," Erwin Dirnberger uses original historical documents to recount fascinating stories about the movement of goods across the Splügen Pass.
- If you'd rather explore the area with an animal companion, you can take part in a goat trek.
The festivities will conclude with the official anniversary ceremony at Bodenplatz. Together with guests, partners, locals, and fellow hikers, we will look back on the history and significance of this cultural and long-distance hiking trail. The event will feature speeches, musical performances, and a cozy conclusion in a special atmosphere.
No reservation is required for the supporting program. You can find detailed information about the daytime and evening programshere
