Snowsports & Hiking Weekend - a great Farewell to winter!

Looking for a great way to say farewell to winter? Then join our snowsports weekend! We'll be in a simple mountain hut in a high, remote valley with no village but some ski lifts, nordic skiing trails, (snowshoe) hiking trails and excellent backcountry skiing possibilities.

--------------------------

Already tired of snowsports? Rather go hiking? Then this trip is good for you as well! See specific info a bit further below.

All but 1 lifts are open - Cross Country (skating & classic) is open - winter hiking is open - Happiness is waiting for us :)

This weekend will take place at Engstligenalp in the Bernese Oberland, close to Adelboden. The microclimate in the Engstligenalp valley makes that the snow season is much longer here than in other resorts. Here the ski season ends every year after the first weekend of May...

Our hut (at 1.950m altitude) is simple but does have an electric stove and a shower.

For dinner you can choose between cheese fondue and a vegan dish - please let me know what you prefer at the moment of signing up.

The cost for this trip is CHF 115/EUR 105 per person. This covers dinner on Saturday evening, the rental of our private hut, breakfast on Sunday.
I will ask you for an advance payment because I have to confirm the booking of the hut. Should I cancel the event, you will get a full refund. Should you cancel your participation, I will give you the full refund if I find someone else to take your place.

Please bring a sleeping bag. Ski- and snowboard-equipment, nordic skiing equipment and snow shoes can be rented in Engstligenalp, if you're not bringing your own. Of course we're not going to do all these different snowsports all together; if you're a skier, you'll be skiing; if you're a hiker, you'll be hiking, etc. :)

Join this unforgettable weekend in the snow!

In that case you can make a spring time hike in the Adelboden valley, take the last cable car (15:40) up to Engstligenalp, walk 15 minutes to our hut, and then enjoy great group atmosphere, hand made Swiss cheese fondue, and a cosy night in an authentic mountain hut! Then on Sunday breakfast together and then you would go down again with the cable car, and make another hike in the Adelboden valley!
