A dinner under what is probably the most beautiful starry sky in the world.
Nowhere else the sky is as clear as on the Gornergrat: Almost no light pollution and a wonderful panorama with the Matterhorn itself and 28 other four-thousand-metre peaks. Enjoy a fondue chinoise, classic or vegetarian, in the restaurant saycheese! at 3100 Kulmhotel Gornergrat accompanied by astronomic guide. As a highlight, you get the rare opportunity to visit the observatory on the Gornergrat and take a look through the telescope!
The Dining with the Stars season has ended. We look forward to welcoming you again next winter.

Gaze at the stars
If the weather gods are kind, you can enjoy a spectacular view of the starry sky from the terrace. As part of Dining with the Stars, you can also exclusively visit the dome room at Kulmhotel. Our "house astronomers" Timm Riesen / Jesse Weder from the University of Bern are looking forward to showing you 2-3 heavenly delights. With the telescope in the observatory, you can view objects in the night sky up close.
There is no more beautiful night sky in central Europe than the one above the Gornergrat. Anyone who has seen this wonderful, starry sky will never forget it.
