Visitor Testimonials (746)

You can sit, and there's toilet paper. What else do you want while on a mountain ? Not really a public toilet but I assume the Hut owner doesn't mind...

Outstanding view over the area and the local mountains

It's a typical self-service restaurant in a skiing mountain area. It's off-season but still lots of people. Ordering and paying was efficient and the ordered food is brought to our table. Pretty fast and for canteen food, it was well cooked and nice. Personnel are kind and helpful.

Very nice fondue. Great view. Fun trip with cable lift and food included in ticket price. Enjoyed the walk down but was a bit scared about many cows on the way.

The soup of the day was delicious, and the fries were well cooked. You have to consider that prices will be quite high, since it's on top of a mountain
