The Alp is located at 1,640 meters altitude in the Bernese Prealps in the heart of the Gantrisch Regional Nature Park. In summer, goats and cows graze here, cared for by the Mäder family. At the large alpine table in front of the hut, you will be entertained by them from mid-June to mid-September and can taste the homemade goat cheese while enjoying the magnificent view of the striking Gantrisch.

A cozy place near the Gantrischseeli. The goats and cows are used to hikers and the alpine hut is picturesquely decorated. If you want, you can stock up on one or the other alpine treat here. The view is wildly romantic.

What could be better than a delicious snack with a wonderful view? Not much... from up here you have a beautiful view of the Bernese Alpine foothills
