The bedstead is full of dry grass, the towels are linen and the
furniture and dishes just as in great-grandfather's time. Those who spend a night like Gotthelf in the Emmental can experience life as it was 200 years ago.
Hike up the Napf - only accessible on foot - and admire the wonderful
view of the hills of the Emmental from the mountain hotel on the top.
