Operation 9th & 10th November 2024
Weekend in the Sun
The sunny weather in the Chäserrugg area continues and invites you to spend a weekend in the sun! For this reason, operations on the Chäserrugg will resume on 9 and 10 November 2024. As a result, the shuttle between Unterwasser - Iltios and the Iltios - Chäserrugg aerial cable car will be in operation. Both the Chäserrugg summit restaurant and the Iltios mountain restaurant are open with a small self-service offer.
Culinary refreshments on the autumn outing
The summit restaurant is also opening its doors again on this long weekend! Enjoy a small but delicious selection of take-out dishes and make yourself comfortable in the parlour, the dining room or on the sun terrace.
For thirsty hikers, the Iltios mountain restaurant offers self-service drinks during the two days and the barbecue with delicious sausages on the sun terrace will also be catering for you this weekend.

Shuttle Unterwasser – Iltios
Due to the new builded valley station during Summer 2024, a bus will take you from Unterwasser to Iltios. The bus departs every 30 minutes or depending on the number of guests. The departure location and ticket offices are situated in the parking lot of the old valley station in Unterwasser.
Depending on the number of people, waiting times could be long, therefore we recommend to take the chairlift from Alt St. Johann to Alp Sellamatt and then hike to Iltios via the Iltios - Alp Sellamatt connecting route.
