Important: The restaurant's closing times weren't up to date on their website. We specifically chose a day when they were open and discovered they were closed. Too bad. The Ochsenberg tour was still fantastic.

Very nice mountain restaurant with a parking lot for hikers. You can start the Ochsenberg tour from here. The path is signposted in both directions. And after the hike, the restaurant is right next door.

On the last Friday of the month, the lift house is usually open to everyone outside of lift operations. There is delicious food, homemade cakes and legendary coffee specialties. If there is enough snow, the lift usually runs on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Then there will also be entertainment provided by the volunteers from the ski club.
