We facilitate visits for the following groups upon request and according to our capacities:
Please contact Stefanie Zeller (stefanie.zeller@sed.ethz.ch) for further information.
There are no more public tours scheduled for the rest of this year (2024). Public tours will be held again in 2025, led by guides from the Museum Sasso San Gottardo.
Dates will be announced in spring 2025 on our website. Tickets will be available for purchase through Museum Sasso San Gottardo.
Tours are open to anyone aged 10 or over. However, you should be able to complete the brisk
4.5-kilometre hike across uneven terrain in what is only a partially lit rock tunnel. You must also be able to carry a 4.5 kg self-rescuer (more information in the video) with you during the visit.
Before the tour, you will be issued with safety equipment (a helmet, a torch, a fluorescent jacket and a tracking device) and also be given a safety briefing. You will do the tour in a group of up to 20 people and will be accompanied by two trained guides. Visitors are asked to watch a safety video in advance and to fill out a short questionnaire in this regard.
