Offers and experiences

A five-star hotel? The two hotel rooms, one of which is located at the Eggishorn view point and the other in the Märjela Valley on the edge of the Great Aletsch Glacier, can only manage a weary smile when they hear this. Because the rooms in the Million Stars Hotel have a million stars. We’re talking about the unobstructed view of the sparkling night sky above the Aletsch Arena. Sleep tight!

At night it gets really dark in the Aletsch Arena. Surrounded by unspoilt nature and with the big cities being so far away, there is virtually no light pollution. As a result, you can see the stars and the Milky Way more clearly than almost anywhere else. Perfect conditions, in other words, to photograph the night sky. Award-winning photographer and time-lapse specialist Markus Eichenberger shows you how. He takes you on a “Chasing Stars” adventure and gives you tips and tricks for that very special photo of the starlit Valais sky.

The various restaurants of the Aletsch Arena will pamper you with all the many specialities that Valais cuisine has to offer. But there are also some very special culinary offers to look forward to. Take the UNESCO “Crystal Gondola” for up to 4 people, for example: while floating up towards Bettmerhorn, you also scale the heights of culinary pleasure.

The Aletsch Arena, with its breathtaking nature, for the most part unspoilt, is home to many species of animals. Whether red deer, eagle or marmot: keep your eyes peeled, as the chances of seeing one during your stay in Valais are extremely good. Another animal experience awaits you on a walk with frisky goats. But our four-legged friends are also well catered for in the Aletsch Arena and could even learn a thing or two during dog training classes.
