On the golden eagle quiz, you will embark on a circular trail with knowledge questions on Rosswald. It is quite possible that you will see a golden eagle circling overhead while hiking.

A pair of eagles has its nesting site very close to Rosswald, near Bortelalp. The eagles live in a large territory around their eyrie (nest), which means that the Bortelalp eagles can often be seen above Rosswald.
