Do you like autumn as much as we do? Enjoying fresh mountain air, being spoilt with culinary delights or even becoming an outdoor chef yourself: With our tips you can experience the magical season at VogellisiBerg in all its facets.

Ten golden autumn tips
1. warming cold fingers with a hot cup
What better way to warm up cold fingers nose tips on a hot cup of chocolate after a long autumn hike through colourful forests? Or how about a “Gnüssi”? The Restaurant Sillerenbühl has many soul-warmer on offer.
2. visit a place of energy
There are some magical places at VogellisiBerg. Those that give you strength and let you find peace. One of them is the “Fahrni”: the small glade near the Bütschi Falls is embedded in the valley basin between Troneggrat and Nassberg. The twittering of birds provides the appropriate background music – looking, marvelling, coming to rest and finding the melody of life.
3. brunch
Especially when it’s getting cooler outside, it’s wonderful to feast inside. The buffet of the Silleren Brunch offers every Sunday, until 22nd November, everything the breakfast heart desires: classics and specialities, cold and warm, salty and sweet. Autumn at Sillerenbühl is also very colourful in culinary terms.


4. pick mushrooms
When the summer is over, the best time to pick mushrooms in the woods on the Vogellisi Mountain begins. Who will find the most beautiful specimens? Where are the real secret places for mushroom lovers? Mushroom picking is not only worthwhile for forest bathing. A trip into the great outdoors in good company is even more enjoyable. After all, what could be better than picking up porcini mushrooms, morels and chanterelles together and then preparing a creamy risotto or delicious mushroom slices with them? And of course to enjoy them together!
5. take a souvenir photo in SkyNest
The willow-weaved celestial nest right next to the Sillerenbühl mountain station offers an indescribable panorama of the surrounding mountain peaks, some of which are already snow-covered, even in autumn. This spot for a unique souvenir picture can be wonderfully combined with other excursions on the VogellisiBerg.
6. making fondue outside
Rechaud, caquelon and cheese in your backpack and off you go. A fine fondue under the open sky is not only a culinary experience. If you can enjoy a great view of the mountain panorama, the melted cheese will certainly taste twice as good.
7. flying a kite
Autumn is here, the leaves are colouring and the wind is getting stronger. But that is not a reason to stay at home. On the contrary: autumn is kite time. When the colourful season announces itself with a stiff breeze, it is perfect to stream outside and fly a kite. Looking up at the sky, one can only guess how beautiful flying must be.
8. watching migratory birds
In our latitudes, as winter approaches, thousands of birds flock south along the Niesen chain to warmer climates. This spectacle can be observed at close range on the Hahnenmoospass and can be wonderfully combined with a scenic hike or a short walk.
9. enjoy the best views
Explore VogellisiBerg by foot and experience a firework of colours from nature. When forests change colour, the motto is: go into nature and soak up the sun above the fog line. The countless hiking trails on VogellisiBerg allow you to catch a glimpse of one or two famous peaks thanks to the excellent views.
10. looking forward to the winter
When was the last time you simply sat down on a bench and enjoyed the view? Just sit down, breathe in the fresh, clear mountain air and feel the last warm rays of the sun on your skin. The landscape around VogellisiBerg glows in bright, autumnal colours, the first snow-covered mountain peaks sparkle in the sunlight and a feeling of anticipation arises in the background: Anticipation of winter.
