WHERE WE ARE

The chalet is situated 100 metres above the train station of Braunwald and 100 metres below the Mattwald ski lift, which gives you access to the whole skiing area of Braunwald. Close to the chalet (8 minutes walking) you can also find a small supermarket (the Lädeli in Schwettiberg) where you can buy the most relevant foods & beverages.

In summertime you can start several beautiful hikes directly from the chalet.

GETTING HERE

To get to Braunwald, you need to take a small train (the Braunwald funicular) from the valley in Linthal. In Linthal you park your car next to the train station and load your luggage very easily on the train. The Braunwald funicular will bring you in only 7 minutes up the mountain. Arriving in Braunwald you can step directly from the train into a taxi of Schuler transport, which will bring you and all your luggage to chalet Heidi in less than 10 minutes.

The trip from the valley of Linthal up to the chalet is a memorable experience on its own!
