    Swiss Mountain Hut

At the Schweizerhütte Alpine dairy, top-quality Alpine cheese is produced in the traditional way. During a visit to the hut, you will learn more about the history, the production of the cheese and the life of a dairymaid

Cheese lovers are in just the right place at the Schweizerhütte. Here, the grasses, herbs and milk from the local cows are processed into a wide variety of cheese specialities.
The numerous raw milk cheeses are unique and invite you to savour them. In addition to the classic alpine cheese, there is also sour milk cheese, curd cheese, fresh alpine butter and numerous milk variations.
But it's definitely worth trying the homemade mountain farmer's mozzarella with blueberry vinegar!
Of course, children are not neglected here either. The playground and petting zoo provide plenty of fun and with a bit of luck our marmot couple Manfred and Fraufred will make an appearance.
