Winter Hiking Ticket Moosalp

With a single ticket, you can travel comfortably on the Moosalp-Express chairlift from the valley station in Bürchen to the top station at Chalte Bodu.

Several winter hiking trails start from there, leading through the snow-covered landscape of the Moosalp region.

The winter hike begins with a relaxed chairlift ride from Bürchen to Chalte Bodu. From the top station, the trail runs along level ground to Nassen Pletscha, then follows the Alpine road. The road also serves as a toboggan run and takes you uphill to Moosalp.

After about 50 minutes, you’ll reach Moosalp, where you can stop for something to eat and drink. If you fancy a break along the way, Restaurant Panorama or KaffeeKlatsch Moosalp are great places to enjoy an aperitif.
