Alp Tschingla offers simple, traditional menus and accommodation in four double rooms and a dormitory for 20 people. Relaxation is provided by a hot tub, which is heated upon request after a hike.

In our cottage kitchen we prepare simple and traditional menus. There are various grilled dishes, salads, Aelplermaccaronen, tomato spaghetti or simply something small: cheese, salsiz, bacon and bread. For overnight stays there are 4 double rooms and a dormitory for 20 people. To relax after a nice hike, we are happy to heat up the Hotpot by appointment.
