Rotstockhutte - Menu

You need to walk in a few hours to reach the cottage, perhaps that's why the food tastes so good I don't know, but the limited menu is good and presented in a stunning location.

Walked miles just to get to this famous hut , even though the walk was beautiful the hut isn't really worth a visit. Usually mountain hut fare but nothing exceptional . Worth a visit just for the views getting there

We hiked here from Gimmelwald were dazzled to find this gem! Gleaming mountain peaks surrounded us, and it felt surreal to order beer enjoy some of the best berry pastries with fresh whipped cream we have ever had! We also enjoyed the delicious...wurst. We napped for a few minutes before the amazing hike back to Gimmelwald.

Stayed here one night during our alp trek - was heading to a higher hut but injury forced us to shorten the trek and fortunately there was room. The hut provides showers and toilets, food and refreshments, sleeping quatters (basic but ample) with pillows and blankets (you need to bring a sheet or hire one there - not included).Not a destination in itself but it does not claim to be - this is a great place to stay the night while on a trek between huts.

This is a typical mountain hut. At 2000m in the mountains you expect basic facilities - cold water only, outside toilet block, large dormitory. But the hut enjoys a great location, is clean and well-cared for and well-run. It is small - staff are helpful and friendly. Be aware it is cash only, no wifi, and there is only one plug socket for the whole hut to charge a mobile phone! And there is a dairy next door - whilst cow bells are charming they will wake you at 5am unless you remember ear plugs!

We had the pork sausage (wurst), goulash and homemade plum cake with a 0,5 liter of radler (beer and lemonade mix). Everything was delicious and very reasonably priced (28 CHF total). I'd gladly return and order everything again, and more. The goulash and sausage were the best we had during our visit to Switzerland. The hike up is more strenuous from Gimmelwald than from Mürren, and both have a substantial elevation gain. All the better to work up an appetite for when you reach this establishment!

We walked 9 days of the Alpine Pass Route that overlaps with the Via Alpina, and stayed at the Rotstockhutte for one night prior to the Sefinenfurgge Pass. For anyone who has experienced the Appalachian Mountain Club high huts in the White Mountains this will feel very familiar, meals and accommodations from a friendly crew in a rustic but warm setting. Added appeal of a working dairy farm incorporated - freshest milk, cream, cheese and yogurt! We are vegetarians and were well served with a nice vegetable curry for dinner. Warm reception on a cold and soaking rainy day, a nice pot of tea, rustic but comfortable, in short all you could ask! (It appears that TripAdvisor is categorizing this as...

As alpine huts go, this is a nice location, with good views of the surrounding Bernese Alps. We were a family with two young children. The sleeping arrangement was the typical mattresses on the floor in the attic with about 30 other hikers (not very...conducive to sleep). The half-pension consisted of salty alphabet soup and spaghetti bolognese for dinner, about average for a Swiss hut, and bread, cheese, jam (no butter), coffee/tea/hot chocolate for breakfast. As a small extra they also had made Swiss müesli. There is nothing wrong with the hut. The only issue is that it is not good value for money for a family. One adult is 70 Francs for night+half-pension. But the child discount is very s...

My boyfriend and I are love hiking and when I learned about these huttes I was so excited to stay in one. After a lot of research we decided to stay here and we are so grateful for our experience. It is a 2 hour hike from the town of Murren which offered us a great starting point. The hike was medium to challenging difficulty with the most amazing views. We started the hike early which allowed us to get to Rotstockhutte early to do further hiking from here as our base. The staff spoke English which was helpful as Canadians. The menu for lunch was great and we had the house made soup for lunch. It was a rich creamy delight served with bread and sprinkled with dried wildflowers on top. This hu...
