But the real highlight has to be the two lookout points at Hörnli and Taubenfels. Here the view sweeps outfrom the Niesen mountainsacross the whole Engstligen Valley. The Hörnliweg is the most popular short hike in Adelboden. Starting in the village, the trail leads in steady ascent up top the Höreli. There you find the Alpine Garden, a wonderful treasure that assembles all sorts of local flowers and herbs on a small patch of land. It is cultivated by nature lovers and invites the guest to stay. The tour continues and leads to the Taubenfels, maintaining the same level. There, the admirable view of Adelboden and of the mountains Lohner and Wildstrubel suggests a next halt. Finally, you descend through the Senggi forest down to the village.
Approach
From Bern, follow the A6 motorway in the direction of Thun/Interlaken. Leave the motorway at the exit "Spiez" and continue via Frutigen to Adelboden.
Public transport
Upto the Alp or down to Frutigen? The bus station in the village centre links the Engstlige Valley during the day and also at night with the Moonliner service. This tranquil mountain village is only 90 minutes away from the nation's capital city.
