Your Travel Experience with Avellera
Guided Tour of the Schiltalp Alpine Cheese Dairy
Set off on a scenic one-hour hike above Mürren to reach the Schiltalp alpine dairy at 1,946 m above sea level. Along the way, the mountain farmers guide you through their traditional craft—making alpine cheese in the summer months using huge cauldrons, a wood fire, and a rustic alpine shed. At the top, you’ll witness the cheese-making process firsthand and learn how generations of farmers have perfected this artisanal skill. Afterwards, enjoy a delicious alpine breakfast amidst stunning mountain panoramas. The tour ends with the option to return on foot or by bike along a wide mountain path—roughly a 45-minute descent back to Mürren. Perfect for food and nature lovers alike, this unique experience combines light hiking, cultural insight, and regional flavours in one unforgettable morning.
