Autumn time on the Tschentenalp – a feast for all the senses!

Let yourself be enchanted by warming classics, fine autumn flavors and selected drinks that are perfect for this time of year.

Our philosophy

Natural. Regional. Cordially.

Welcome to a place where time slows down and everyday life fades into the background. Our mountain restaurant stands for a close connection with nature, a love of authentic flavors and the joy of togetherness.

Our restaurant combines authenticity and enjoyment. Whether after a refreshing hike, a day on the slopes or a relaxing excursion – here you will find a place that focuses on warmth, hospitality and the beauty of the mountains.

Stefan Kläy

The chef who creates memories from ingredients

Stefan Kläy’s Berghaus kitchen smells of home. Of roasted onions, fresh herbs and the warm aroma of braised meat.

Stefan brings years of experience in top gastronomy to the mountain. Landgasthof Lueg in Emmental, Restaurant Schönbühl and Viktoria Eden in Adelboden – stages of an impressive career that have been honored with 14 Gault Millau points. Now he has chosen Tschentenalp as his new stage.

Here, Stefan cooks with a team that is just as passionate as he is. Together they create surprising dishes that stay in your memory: Älplermagronen that are both a childhood memory and a gourmet experience, lamb ragout that smells of mountains and meadows. With Stefan and his team, you don’t just taste the food. You taste his story.

Erwin Oester

The host who makes you feel at home

When Erwin Oester smiles, you know: You have arrived. Our host has that rare gift of immediately making people feel welcome. Whether you’re spontaneously driving up with the family or planning your wedding – Erwin listens, understands and makes things possible.

He knows every stone on the Tschentenalp and every story that has been written here. With him, a simple mountain excursion becomes a day that you will remember for a long time to come. Because Erwin knows that the special things often lie in the little moments. And he creates them with a warmth that you can’t learn – you have to have it.
