Escape to a simpler life with Karin and Dani

Discover Wallis, at an altitude of 1500 m, in the beautiful Lötschental. The region exudes a charm all of its own, with wooden houses blackened by the sun and the and the typical Wallis granaries. The farm, which was certified organic in 2004 as the first farm in the Lötschental, consists of a single-family house with an outbuilding where Karin and Dani Ritler raise sheep here. The rustic furnished tents are located on the farm’s meadow and offer an unforgettable view of the imposing Lötschental mountains.

The breathtaking Swiss mountain world

The Lötschentaler Höhenweg (UNESCO World Heritage Site) offers guided mountain tours. The World Nature Forum (WNF) in Naters, a worldwide unique centre of the UNESCO World Heritage Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch, with interactive presentations on the theme of the Alps, can be reached within an hour.

    The Farm Shop

    It’s great for the basics and usually even better for local produce and low food miles. And every Feather Down farm shop operates on an honesty basis.
