Cheese, Hornusser, villagers in Swiss costume, Alphorns - the Emmental Valley conjures up myriad associations, particularly relating to folklore, customs and traditions. But the Emmental has more to offer than you�d expect. How about a thrilling bike ride for example? The classic route from Langnau up to the Lüderenalp and back has everything a biker could wish for: technical trails interchange constantly with panoramic passages. Typical Bernese farmsteads line the route and the mountain restaurant serves up great food and drink. The views of the giant Alpine peaks of the Berner Oberland are simply spectacular, with the world-famous Eiger, Mönch und Jungfrau taking centre stage.
