Faulhorn Summit and Berghotel

Highlight • Summit

The Faulhorn viewpoint offers an overwhelming view of all the mountain giants of the Bernese Oberland. Conversely, the view sweeps over the Pre-Alps, the Emmental, the Mittelland and the Jura to the Baden Black Forest and the Alsatian Vosges. Seven Swiss lakes are visible: to the east Lake Zug and Lake Lucerne, at your feet Lake Brienz and Lake Thun and to the west Lake Biel, Lake Murten and Lake Neuchâtel.

The Faulhorn mountain hotel at an altitude of 2,681 meters is the oldest mountain hotel in Switzerland. From up here you can enjoy an overwhelming 360-degree panorama. The mountain hotel has survived almost unchanged since its construction in 1830. It was an admirable achievement for its time, which still deserves our respect today.
