The Tschentenalp at the foot of the Schwandfälspitz is the local mountain of Adelboden and at the same time a unique viewing platform with an excellent view over the entire Entschligetal. The alp can be reached from the village center by a group circulating cable car. Right at the mountain station, the Tschentenalp Trail marked as a blue route begins. In the first part, you follow the ridge of the Tschentenegg northeastwards. On one side you are accompanied by fast skiers and on the other by the impressive panorama towards Frutigen. At the huts of the Tschentenegg, you leave the ridge northwards and descend through powder snow to the Tschentenwald. The evenly sloping slope is pure pleasure with snowshoes and quickly mastered. Slightly above the forest edge, the trail now swings left and, maintaining altitude, leads over to the valley station of the Möser chairlift. From there, you can comfortably return to the mountain station of the gondola.
