Want to be an Alpine farmer and cheesemaker?
Every summer a few fortunate Alpenwild guests have the exclusive opportunity to visit Senntum Michel and live the life of an Alpine farmer and cheesemaker. In these high meadows above Grindelwald, you gaze out over the peaks of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. You’ll share those views with 27 dairy cows, as well as heifers, calves, goats, and chicken. And you’ll participate in making traditional alp cheese over an open fire.
There are two ways to enjoy this unforgettable and traditional alpine experience-either as a morning visit or on an overnight stay.
You’ll experience first-hand the art of making cheese on the alp and the time-honored traditions of being an Alpine farmer and cheesemaker. You’ll enjoy a wonderful farm breakfast-fresh bread from the oven, Alpine butter, various cheeses, yogurt, homemade jams, coffee, tea and fresh milk-all in an unforgettable setting. After breakfast, you’ll visit the centuries-old cheese huts where the cheese is aged to perfection. Most Alpenwild guided tours in the Jungfrau Region include a morning at Senntum Michel.
