Intro

The Kien Valley in the Bernese Oberland, a holiday resort with about 210 inhabitants, is a side valley of the Kandertal. The end of the valley is part of the Jungfrau-Aletsch UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Kien Valley is within the administrative district of Reichenbach.

Description

From the Kien Valley a new chairlift leads high up to Ramslauenen, where you will have a magnificent view of the Blüemlisalp, the Kien Valley and Lake Thun. The Kien Valley boasts Europe’s steepest PostAuto route, with a gradient of 28%. This spectacular ride, leading from the resort town of Kiental (Kien Valley) past the Tschingel Lake to Griesalp, is an unforgettable experience for everyone.

Winter

As soon as the first snow falls, the Kien Valley becomes a winter paradise. The 7-kilometer toboggan run from Ramslauenen to the Kien Valley is a highlight for all ages! The Kien Valley also has an ideal skiing area for beginners and families. The beautiful panorama terrace and dining room of the Ramslauenen Mountain House guarantee many cozy hours.

Summer

Griesalp in the Kien Valley, is the starting point of memorable mountain hikes and high altitude treks. About 250 kilometers of hiking trails take you through colorful flower-decked meadows, shady mountain forests, past rushing mountain streams and thunderous waterfalls. The Kien Valley’s theme trails, which extol the uniqueness of the flora and fauna as well as the legends and lore of the valley, are in great demand.
