Welcome to the beautiful plateau of Engstligenalp, where tradition and pleasure merge in a unique way.
Our raclette hut is more than just a place to eat – it is an experience that spoils you with delicious cheese, a cozy atmosphere and pure relaxation. So dive in and let yourself be enchanted by alpine chic and delicious cheese!
Whether it’s a family celebration, a company outing or a club meeting – the hut offers space for up to 80 people. Here you can enjoy authentic Swiss Raclette à discrétion. By the way, the raclette meal can be wonderfully combined with a round of cross-country skiing or a winter walk in the picturesque surroundings.
If you would rather just have a drink, you are of course just as welcome to enjoy the cozy atmosphere in our lodge!
9 points and the “Outstanding” seal of approval! A total of 75,021 reviews and an independent jury of experts decided on the Swiss Location Award 2025: After receiving the award in 2024, we are once again one of the official best pleasure locations in Switzerland in 2025. The Raclettehütte was particularly convincing in the criteria “Stylish atmosphere”, “Unique location” and “Friendly hosts”.
Many thanks to our community for this wonderful award!
The next Swiss Location Award and thus the 10th anniversary edition will take place in 2027.
The heart – the cheese: Here everything revolves around the king of Swiss cuisine – cheese! Experience how the cheese slowly melts and turns into a delicious raclette. Our high-quality, regional cheeses will impress even the most discerning palates. The raclette cheese promises a perfect taste experience with the delicious side dishes of bread, potatoes, gherkins, silver onions, diced bacon and onions!

Modern showers and practical, lockable lockers are available on the upper floor right by the mountain station – ideal for day guests who want to store their change of clothes safely and change before visiting the cozy raclette hut.
