About the Surrounding Area
Just a short, pleasant walk away, the village center offers shops, restaurants, and the "Amden, Brugg" bus stop, making the studio easily accessible even without a car. The nearby ski and hiking area in Arvenbüel can be reached in only ten minutes by bus or car. Known as the sun terrace of the region, Amden offers not only unique natural beauty but a variety of activities: in winter, guests can enjoy skiing, cross-country trails, snowshoeing, and sledding. In summer, numerous hiking trails, climbing paths, and the wild shores of Lake Walen, along with the sandy beaches of Gäsi, invite you to swim and relax.
