Konkordiahütte

Rooms

In the manned season, the Konkordiahütte offers around 155 beds, mainly in multi-bed dormitories, supplemented by two simple suites directly under the roof with a view of the Jungfrau. The last major renovations resulted in spacious dormitories, a modern catering kitchen and comfortable toilet and washing facilities, making your stay much more pleasant. The winter room in the historic Haslerhütte directly below the main hut serves as unattended emergency accommodation; there are simple beds with blankets and pillows, a wood stove, lighting and some emergency provisions, but you must bring your own food. The winter room is opened with a numerical code and offers around 20 beds. Reservations for the serviced hut and the winter room can be made via the online reservation system or by calling the hut team. Cash in CHF and major cards (excluding American Express) are accepted as means of payment, in exceptional cases also Twint or bank transfer. Thanks to the hut's own power supply, electricity and lighting are available and, according to mountain portals, mobile phone reception is available in emergencies; running water comes from collected meltwater and is not available all year round.

Food and drink

Overnight stays are usually offered with half-board during the supervised period. In the evening there is a multi-course menu with soup, main course and dessert, also vegetarian, gluten-free or lactose-free if booked in advance. For breakfast, the team serves homemade Bircher muesli, bread from the hut oven, jam, butter and mountain cheese from Saxeten; each person also receives a liter of marching tea for the day.

Directions

From the Jungfraujoch, the normal route takes around 4 to 4.5 hours via the Jungfraufirn down to the Konkordiaplatz and on across the wide glacier surface to the foot of the metal staircase, covering around 160 meters in altitude on the ascent and considerably more on the descent before climbing the 500-plus steps to the hut. From the Fiescheralp, the ascent over the Aletsch Glacier typically takes 5 to 6 hours with a good 1050 meters of altitude, while even longer, combined glacier trails are possible from Blatten in the Lötschental or from the Fafleralp. All ascents run over crevasse-rich glaciers and require appropriate alpine equipment and experience.
