Of course, the blue bird is also available for a souvenir photo. Most of the time he even has a surprise with him: small gifts like tattoos, glue and postcards make sure that your encounter with Globi will stay in your memory for a long time.
With Globi, hiking is twice as much fun. The three Globi hiking trails are ideal for exploring the landscape, animals and plants of the Alpine world:
The three Globi themed trails are expected to be open daily from June 22 until the end of the summer season!

Do you already know Globi’s adventures on Engstligenalp? The Globi book “Globi auf der Alp” tells the story of how Globi becomes an alpine farmer on Engstligenalp for one season. The alpine dairyman has suffered an unfortunate injury and Globi steps in without further ado. There is a lot for him to do now: he has a lot to learn and discovers a lot of new things in the process. In addition to the classic activities on the alp, he spreads cow dung on the pastures, hauls huge bales of hay and learns how to yodel through a milk funnel or how to wave flags. He has to deal with very naughty cows, meets dwarfs and a giant and experiences much more.
Globi books and CD’s are available in the Globi-Stübli or in the Berghotel.
The Globi Stübli is always open when the Globi cable car is in operation.
