Intro

Experience coziness, the culinary offer and the fantastic panoramic view of the surrounding mountains on the Niesen.

Information

Description

The Niesen is a pyramid and stands on Lake Thun. With its unmistakable shape, it stands at the gateway to the Bernese Oberland, like a sentinel between the valleys of the Simme and Kander. In 1856, the first mountain lodge was built on this exclusive peak, followed by the funicular railroad in 1910, which leads in two sections to the 2,362 m high peak.

Away from everyday life and yet quickly accessible. In the Berghaus Niesen Kulm at 2,332 m above sea level, we offer the right ambience for every occasion. According to your wishes, individually separable rooms are available. The fantastic view from the high Alps to the Jura or a mystical to stormy fog and cloud atmosphere are the unmistakable backdrop for your event at this unique place of power. The historic mountain house from 1856 and the multiple award-winning pavilion from 2002 were renovated and further developed in 2018/2019.

Venue

The restaurant/hotel at the top of the Niesen was built in 1856, 50 years before the funicular railway. In 2002, the clear-cut, geometrically-designed and transparent restaurant pavillon was opened to the public. The modern, functional architecture catches the eye and stands in contrast to the natural beauty of the surrounding mountains. Discover and enjoy the special atmosphere of the Niesen, its good food and fantastic Alpine panorama.
