Wiidhüsi bim Ahore

Switzerland-3715 Adelboden

Our charming Weidhüsli is nestled at the very end of the Engstligtal valley, in the Gilbach hamlet of Adelboden, at an altitude of 1500 meters above sea level. Locals affectionately (and humorously) refer to Gilbach as “The Valley of Howling Winds,” a nickname that truly comes to life when the autumn Föhn wind powerfully sweeps through the fir trees. The Gilbachtäli is a small, idyllic valley, slightly set apart from Adelboden, offering breathtaking views of the Fitzer, the Gilbach residents' beloved local mountain. A Weidhaus is similar to an Alpine hut, but historically served as an intermediate station before livestock ascended to the higher Alpine pastures. For a long time, cattle would still occupy the stable in spring and autumn. For the past few years, however, this space has been home to shaggy goats during the summer months.

Surroundings & Activities

Winter access

Access to the parking area is maintained by winter road services. From the parking lot, there is a short walk up to the property; depending on the snow conditions, this can be done in winter boots or snowshoes. Usually, a well-trodden path is already available.

Shopping facilities

Restaurant Des Alpes is just a 5-minute walk from the car park. You'll find various shops in the village, a pleasant 40-minute stroll away, a 15-minute bike ride, or a quick 5-minute trip by bus or car.

Depending on who's out and about, you might spot an ermine, fox, field hare (yes, foxes and hares truly bid each other goodnight here!), a badger, or, depending on the season and with a bit of luck, even a bearded vulture. Enjoy the breathtaking view of the Fitzer mountain.

From the parking lot, it's a quick 5-minute bike ride to the bike trail, or 12 minutes to the Sillerenbahn middle station. Alternatively, a bus stop is conveniently located just 50 meters from the parking lot. Please check the operating hours for the bus and cable car.
