(05) THE SETTING
Above the valley, below the noise.
Alder & Pine sits at 1,620 metres, above the valley and below the high peaks. There is no road to the door — guests arrive by shuttle, then walk the last hundred metres through pine trees. The air is thin, the water is cold and the evenings are quiet.
The lodge is not a hotel. There is no reception desk, no minibar, no television. There is a stove, a library, a drying room for boots and a deck that faces the dawn.
Family-run, not a chain
The same family has run the lodge since 2012. They know the trails, the weather and your name by day two.
Small on purpose
Twelve cabins only. No crowds, no queues, no noise — just the mountain and the people who came for it.
Guides included
Every stay includes guided hikes. You do not need experience, only boots and a willingness to walk.
Honest pricing
The price you see is the price you pay. No resort fees, no surprises at checkout.
(06) GUEST VOICES
“We arrived tired and left rested in a way I did not think was possible in four days. The cabin was warm, the hikes were honest, and nobody hurried us at any point.”
“The kids still talk about the lake swim and the fireside evenings. It is the first holiday where the whole family actually slowed down.”
Tom Becker — Guest, Munich — The Family Lodge“I came alone, walked every day and read by the stove every night. Small, quiet and perfect.”
