Enjoy a winter evening in a private HotPot right on Lake Brienz. The water, heated to about 39 degrees, the view of the mountains, and if you’d like, a regional cheese fondue will make your visit truly special. Your own HotPot can accommodate 2 to 8 people.

It gets dark in Brienz at 4:45 pm. From 5 pm, you can sit in water warmed to 39 degrees. The HotPot is entirely yours until 10 pm.

    Sabrine Schulz

  • We liked it very much! We were able to change in a heated cabin and then take a seat in the hot water of a pot. What stood out to me: Everything is very well maintained, and the organizers also have an eye for detail. From the pot, you also have a fantastic view of Lake Brienz and the Alps on the opposite side.
