Alpine Village Nr. 1.2 - Apartment Gantenbein
The Alpine Village Lauchernalp Resort is located in the Lauchernalp holiday region on a sunny terrace and offers a wonderful view of the magical Lötschental valley. It is surrounded by 40 four-thousand-metre peaks and the imposing Bietschhorn. The holiday park consists of ten residential buildings, each with eight holiday apartments. Buildings 9 and 10 form the central building, which also houses the indoor swimming pool and a small wellness area with sauna (open only wintertime). In winter, you can ski right up to the front door. It is about an 80-metre climb back up to the mountain station of the cable car. Skis are transported up twice a day by snowmobile. Alternatively, you can ski or sledge down to the village on the valley run directly in front of the holiday park. The valley station of the cable car is about a 10 to 15-minute walk from the end of the ski/sledging run. The apartments with even numbers are on the left side of the building and those with odd numbers are on the right side (as seen from the entrance). Due to the slope, the entrance to some of the houses is above the ground floor apartment. There is also an original wooden shed on the grounds, which houses one of the playrooms. In the entrance area, there is a lockable ski box and a coat rack for each flat. The following resort facilities are available for shared use: * Heated indoor swimming pool and sauna (in winter season) * Pool table and table tennis * Children's playhouse * Laundry room with washing machine and tumble dryer * Morning ski transport up to the gondola lift * Bread, wine and wood service from the caretaker

See also https://www.bls.ch/de/fahren/unterwegs-mit/autoverlad/kandersteg-goppenstein/tickets-kandersteg-goppenstein. Continue on to the magical Lötschental; after another 10 minutes you will arrive in Wiler at the valley station of the gondola to Lauchernalp. * By train from Bern without changing trains in less than 2 hours and through the same tunnel to Goppenstein; from there with a good bus connection in another 10 minutes directly to Wiler in the Lötschental to the valley station of the gondola. * The gondola to Lauchernalp runs all year round, but more frequently in winter during the high season. See https://www.loetschental.ch/de/bergbahnen/fahrplan.
