Camping in Fribourg
Winter-Märchen auf Alp Cousimbert
Switzerland-1634 La Roche
Nestled at 1633m on Alp Cousimbert des Particuliers (available for booking on snowy weekends from New Year's onwards), snowshoe enthusiasts will discover a magically romantic winter wonderland, complete with a delightful fondue experience, overnight stay, and breakfast. Imagine soaking in the wood-fired hot tub (optional), gazing at the unparalleled views of the magnificent winter landscape of the Fribourg Alps. This alpine gem is only accessible by snowshoe (a scenic 1 to 1.25-hour trek). Norbert welcomes you to Alp Cousimbert des Particuliers – or, in German, Flühkäseberg – immersing you in an authentic winter alpine world of snow-dusted forests and meadows. Should you wish, Norbert can guide you on snowshoe tours. In the evening, you'll be rewarded with a genuine Fribourg fondue (included in the price). Whether you're a couple seeking a romantic escape or a group of friends looking for adventure, this is the perfect place to spend a rustic weekend far from civilization. You'll snuggle into your own sleeping bag on comfortable beds in shared rooms. The Alp offers a 4-bed room, a small dormitory with 6 beds, and a larger dormitory with 15 beds. Breakfast is also included in the price. You have two ways to reach Alp Cousimbert. The first option is to drive from Fribourg/Plasselb to Torry-Boden, where you can park your car and snowshoe for 1.25 hours to the Alp. Alternatively, from the west via La Roche, head to the valley station of La Berra and take the cable car to the ski resort's mountain station. From there, it's approximately a 55-minute snowshoe hike to the Alp (parking is available at the valley station of the La Berra gondola/chairlift, both are subject to a fee).

Norbert is a very pleasant host; he gave us a great tip for our hike and we were spoiled with good fondue, rösti, and a perfectly warmed-up hot tub! It was very lovely!
We had a wonderful time at the Buvette Cousimbert des Particuliers! Delicious cheese fondue, enjoying the view from the hot tub, great recommendations for snowshoe hikes, and lots of lovely conversations! Norbert and his team did everything to make our stay a unique experience :) Thank you so much!
We really enjoyed our stay on the alp. We felt right at home and had a fantastic New Year's Eve in the mountains. The food was great and the hospitality made our start to 2025 truly perfect. We warmly recommend everything and are grateful to Norbert and his team for this wonderful hut and the opportunity to spend the night and enjoy such lovely moments there :)!
Super cool little cabin with a charming hut warden, Norbert! It was truly a fantastic weekend. We loved how accommodating Norbert was with all our requests. Thank you so much for everything!
Norbert welcomed us very warmly in the cozy cabin at Alp Cousimbert. The hot pot was a real highlight in the cold temperatures and falling snow. The warming and delicious dinner afterwards was a true treat. I would 100% recommend this experience because Norbert is a fantastic host who caters to every need, and the small cabin has great charm. We will definitely be back.
We had a wonderful weekend and will definitely come back! Norbert is very hospitable and prepared a great fondue for us. The mountain view from the hot tub is simply amazing. Thank you very much!
Our girls' winter weekend at Norbert's cabin was simply perfect! Arriving at the rustic, cozy cabin after our hike, we received a warm welcome, ate a fantastic fondue, and then enjoyed a chilled glass of wine in the hot tub with an incredible view. What more could you ask for?! Thank you!, we highly recommend it :)
This is exactly how I imagine a perfect host. Norbert's cooking ensured great spirits and full bellies. Our snowshoe tours were a true winter fairy tale, and relaxing in the hot tub soothed our muscles. We would love to come back.
