The Swiss National Park encompasses a particularly impressive piece of Alpine landscape with a wealth of flora and fauna. Within its boundaries nature is left to develop freely. Founded in 1914, it is the oldest national park in the Alps and central Europe. Together with the Regional Nature Park Biosfera Val Müstair, the Swiss National Park now forms a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

Schools and groups can also visit the museum by appointment from Tuesday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 12 noon. Please note the special opening hours on public holidays. https://naturmuseum-so.ch

ALPS maintains a collection of alpine cultural assets, has its own restaurant and shop, and is part of the Museumsquartier Bern.
