Summer/autumn

Activities in warmer weather.

Staying active on holiday

Warmer weather invites you to discover the beautiful mountains of Adelboden – whether on foot or by bike. Or would you prefer a cool dip in the mountain lake or a tennis match after a leisurely stroll through the village? Adelboden offers something for everyone.

Biking

Surrounded by mountain peaks, forests and streams, Adelboden is a great place to visit on two wheels. With its bike trails and circular tours, there is something for everyone – both with and without a motor.

We offer an all-round service so you can enjoy your bike holiday with us in Adelboden to the full, from a lockable bike room and a washing and repair area to daily laundry of your bike clothes.

Would you prefer to leave your bike at home and hire one on site? That is also possible. Our 4 full-suspension all-mountain e-bikes from Haibike are already waiting for you for CHF 55 per day (CHF 65 for external guests). 

Thanks to our cooperation with Bikeschule Adelboden, we also have some exciting tips for your tour.

Trailrunning

Whether you’re jogging light-footed towards Stiegelschwand or chasing the first rays of sunlight along the Fortunatrail up to Tschentenalp – the trails surrounding Hotel Adler Adelboden are simply breathtaking.

As a trail runner, you’ll feel right at home with us.
You’re welcome to leave your trail running clothes at the reception for washing – so they’re fresh and ready for your next adventure the very next day.

A gathering of international runners, and an unforgettable experience – whether you’re participating or cheering from the sidelines.
