Game, fun, and interesting facts about the rare Swiss pine

Game, fun, and interesting facts about the rare Swiss pine were the challenges for Almholz in designing the new Swiss pine park at the height of the Hochzeiger mountain railways' mid-station.

What emerged is a circular hiking trail about 1 km long, along which the positive properties of the "Queen of the Alps" are entertainingly presented—with two oversized Swiss pine cones as play towers.
