The Chelenalphütte SAC is a traditional hut located at 2,350 meters above sea level on a rocky terrace above the Chelenreuss Valley, beyond the Göscheneralpsee. It offers uninterrupted views of the surrounding granite peaks and the valley's glaciers. It can be reached in about 3.5 hours on foot from the Göscheneralp.
The hut is an ideal starting point for summer hikes, climbing and combined alpine tours, such as the Sustenhorn, Gwächtenhorn and Tierberge.
It is also a stop on the challenging "Five Huts Panorama Trail".
There are several climbing parks in the vicinity of the hut.

The Chelenalp hut is a hearty little hut with a sensational view of the Chelenalp glacier and the Chelenalp valley. Super nice environment in the middle between all the mountain / glacier massifs.
