Opening times in case of bad weather
If there is a forecast for bad weather (strong rain, snow etc) we might stay closed on such days. In case of rainy weather please give us a call before you come by to make sure the shop is open. If you have booked a tour or reserved bikes and it rains, we will contact you beforehand, but we will of course still be at the shop to discuss, if we can do the tour / bike rental or not.
November to February our shop is closed. These are the winter months in the Swiss Alps, hence it’s quite unlikely that you can go on a bike tour.
What does “Open on request” mean? We are deciding on a day-by-day base if we open the shop or not. Contact us and we’ll let you know if we will be opening our shop or not. In case you only reach the answering machine or we do not respond to your email, we are closed.
