Welcome to the NEW
Restaurant Bussalp

A new restaurant, new owners, a new team. Our mountain restaurant was completely rebuilt in the autumn of 2025.

Rustic wood – authentic – chic!

Bussalp - the outback of Grindelwald. Remote, high above the valley, far away from the hustle and bustle. No cars, no cable cars, no crowds. Just the impressive mountain panorama - and you. In winter, the sparkling snowy landscape, in summer, the lush green alpine meadows with the sunburnt wooden facades of the alpine huts.

Biking

From Grindelwald, the official Bussalp Bike Mountain Bike Route (No. 342) leads over approximately 19 kilometers and 900 meters of altitude difference to Bussalp. A varied tour on asphalt, natural roads and single trails with magnificent views of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau.

How to get to Bussalp

Today, fresh snow on roads and paths is cleared quickly with modern machines.
