THE HOTEL
Philosophy and Sustainability
“The Berglodge37 is the ideal place for curious people who want to network with each other. We want to contribute to a vital and inspired life.
It is our goal to support people in their efforts to achieve the highest possible level of vitality and to lead a fulfilling life. The beautiful and diverse mountain landscape of the Eggberge is ideal for this.
Inspiring workshops and fireside chats are intended to promote interdisciplinary exchange between pioneers and those who think differently. With tolerance towards people and humility towards nature and the environment, an authentic mountain oasis for grown-ups is to be created.
The Berglodge37 is managed according to the latest findings of sustainable, responsible entrepreneurship. The Berglodge37 was built exclusively with Swiss wood - including "moon wood" from the Eggberge - and is operated with geothermal probe heating.
With our food concept, as well as the consistent avoidance of food waste and by not using plastic where possible, we also contribute to sustainability and the reduction of our CO2 footprint.”
