Naturfreundehaus

Our sun terrace offers magnificent views of the snow-capped Blümlisalp in summer and winter. We'll be pleased to serve you roesti prepared on our wood-fired stove, home-made cream slices or many other delicacies, mostly prepared with products from local mountain farms.

Zoom: Blüemlisalp SAC Hut

Blüemlisalp SAC Hut 2840m

The Blüemlisalp Hut sits high up on the ridge between Griesalp and the Lake Oeschinen. In the middle of the Blüemlisalp’s breathtaking glacier world, the far-reaching views take in Lake Thun, the Jura mountains, the Vosges in France and even the Feldberg in Germany. On a clear day they seem close enough to touch. On the way to Kandersteg, you can "refuel" with coffee and cake or roesti and beer in the welcoming SAC hut. And of course you can also stay overnight. Hikers and mountaineers enjoy sensational sunsets.
