A land of plenty and prosperity

On the way from Chalberhöni to the Gru­benberg hut, it is worthwhile stopping off at the car-free village of Saanen. The unostentatious yet magnificent buildings bear testament to the important positi­on Saanen has always had. After a coffee break in the village and one or two longer stays, we climb past chalets via Under­bort up to Mt. Gspan and on to Mt. Rel­lerli. Here we briefly enjoy the panoramic view before following the ridge path to Mt. Mittelberg with views of the Grisch­bach Valley, which forms the „Röstigra­ben“ (language barrier). From Mt. Mittel­berg, there is not far to go until reaching the Grubenberg hut. The SAC hut on Mt. Grubenberg provides a special Alpine ex­perience every time.

Highlights

  • Extensive visit to the village of Saanen
  • Saanen Village Reformed Church, which was first officially mentioned in 1228, is considered one of the mos beautiful in the canton of Bern.
