Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of chalet "Dörfli" are among its most captivating features, offering a generous terraced garden that is entirely private and perfectly suited for relaxation and al fresco enjoyment. Surrounded by the serene alpine environment and positioned just steps from the forest edge, the garden provides a peaceful setting where you can unwind and take in the breathtaking natural scenery of the Swiss mountains.
