The Alp Kohlschlag is an idyllic destination for families, hikers, and bikers. The Sennäbeizli offers simple cuisine with its own alpine products. Overnight stays in the mattress dormitory are possible upon request.

The Kohlschlag Alp is not only a summer residence for cattle and cows, but also a worthwhile excursion destination for the whole family and an insider tip for hikers and bikers. At the idyllic Kohlschlagerbach, four fireplaces await you. Let yourself be pampered in the rustic Sennäbeizli, among other things with dishes from your own alpine products. Overnight stay in mattress camp with breakfast on request.
