Golden autumn in Adelboden-Lenk-Kandersteg 🍂
12.10.2023

Where else could you possibly enjoy the golden autumn skies better than in the heart of the Bernese Oberland? Close to major Swiss cities such as Bern, Zurich or Basel, the destination Adelboden-Lenk-Kandersteg offers a wide range of fun activities: above the mist, there is an extensive network of hiking trails, various adventure options for families and, of course, the matching accommodation - time to take a look around with HotelCard.
Adelboden - far-reaching horizons overlooking the valley
The village of Adelboden lies at the heart of the Engstli Valley in an authentic and unspoilt mountain landscape. Sporty guests will find a wide range of activities here, from mountain hikes beneath the Wildstrubel, to bike tours along the fast-paced Höchsttrail, all the way to scenic cross-country trails. Meanwhile, gourmets can enjoy culinary delights in the "Hohliebestübli" or the "Alpenblick" awarded 15 and 16 Gault-Millau points.

Lenk - a home away from home below the Betelberg
If you are looking for authentic alpine traditions, this cosy Simmental mountain village is the place to visit. Autumnal excursion destinations such as the Simmen Falls, the Lenkerseeli or exciting theme trails can easily be reached on foot. A time out in Lenk also allows you to experience mountain farming - for instance by sampling local products such as alpine cheese, dried meat and herb bread.

Kandersteg - under the spell of the World Heritage Site
High cliffs, deep blue waters and a charming town centre: it's no wonder that this region is a Unesco World Heritage Site. Visitors can spend relaxing and magical moments here, perhaps at Lake Oeschinen or Lake Blausee. On the other hand, those who enjoy exercise can explore the wild Gasterntal valley or the historic Gemmi Pass on foot. Still got some energy left? The two Fortuna Trails are perfect for runners.
