Year-Round in the Alps

Two Seasons, One Table

The Bernese Oberland has two very different rhythms — and a menu to match each one.

Ski Season

December – April

Chalet dinners after a day on the slopes, fondue & raclette nights, and catered stays for ski groups and family holidays — the busiest, most-booked season of the year.

Alpine Summer

June – September

Lakeside dinners, hiking-day feasts and long terrace evenings — lighter, seasonal menus built around what's fresh from the valley.
