Description

Around the Kesch-Hütte SAC you can call up information texts, pictures, audio contributions and videos about the energetically exemplary SAC hut on your smartphone at 8 interesting locations. The audio files can be found at the corresponding points at the back of the pictures.  

In order for everything to work properly, please note the following:

  • Have you saved the route with all the data offline? At the Kesch hut there is no mobile phone reception and no Wi-Fi.
  • Is the battery charged?
  • Do you have sound, vibration and GPS turned on?
  • Do you have the headphones with you ? 
  • Let's get started! Leave the route open, the smartphone vibrates as soon as information is available.

Geheimtipp

From the hut terrace you can observe at the end what the careless consumption of non-renewable energy leads to: The Porchabella glacier at the foot of the Piz Kesch continues to melt year after year.

Directions

On the map you can see the location of the interesting places on the tour. They are all located near the hut. You can turn off the GPS, because the path is described in the app and the places are close to each other. So you can save your battery.
