In good conditions, the view extends as far as the Mythen mountains in the canton of Schwyz. In addition to fine food and drink in the Musenalp mountain restaurant, there is also overnight accommodation for 24 people. You can choose between a place in the dormitory, which has room for 18 people, or in one of the three double rooms if you want a little more privacy. The rooms and the dormitory are offered including half board.
The mountain restaurant offers regional dishes, such as Älplermagronen and cheese slices. Everything is freshly prepared with seasonal products from the region. If you're feeling peckish, there are delicious homemade cakes and various coffees on offer or you can enjoy and buy the fine cheese from the Musenalp Alpine dairy.
Fun for young and old

At the end, the little puzzle foxes receive a surprise in the mountain restaurant.Good to know
