Our Chalet operates in two distinct seasons because of the weather and therefore the opportunities for outdoor activities. We are normally closed for a few weeks in May and November (in between seasons) when most of the lifts and hotels/restaurants in Adelboden are also closed, but if you would like to make a group booking for this time, please contact our reception.

WINTER SEASON 2005-6

Bookings can be made for any period of time from 5 - 23 December 2005 and from 27 December 2005 until the end of the season on 27 April 2006.

The special promotional weeks below are advertised to show what special activities will be going on during these times in addition to our normal programme. You do not need to book for the exact dates of these 'special weeks'.
