Additional Information
Located in the heart of the Bernese Oberland, where the great arc of the Alps
culminates in some of its highest and most spectacular peaks, Kandersteg is a
walker's paradise. This area epitomises the 'chocolate-box' Alps: lush green
meadows bright with wildflowers, against a backdrop of rugged, wild
mountains, topped with glistening glaciers. We stay at the charming Hotel
Alfa Soleil, owned by the Seiler family, and discover the best of the region
offers, including towering cliffs, a hidden valley headed by a glacier, a
sheer gorge carved out by glacial meltwaters and more.
