40th Birthday Celebration
01-04 July 2026, Zermatt
What is this celebration all about?
It’s a four-day alpine celebration designed for everyone you love. Over four unforgettable days, you’ll celebrate with your favorite people — surrounded by breathtaking scenery, beautiful hikes, delicious alpine cuisine, fantastic music, and maybe even a magical overnight stay high in the mountains. The celebration unfolds in two complementary chapters, so every guest can join in the way that feels right for them:
Chapter 1 — For the Adventurers
(Day 1, Morning of Day 2)
The first 1.5 days are designed for friends who love hiking, nature, and that special kind of mountain magic you only feel high above Zermatt. This part includes a beautiful hike up to Fluhalp and an overnight stay in a simple, rustic mountain hut — nothing luxurious, just the pure, cosy rhythm of the Alps. For the hikers, it’s a rewarding ascent through forests, meadows, and wide-open views.
But there’s also an easier option for friends who prefer a gentler route: they can take the Sunnegga Bahn and continue by gondola lift up toward Blauherd, arriving close to the hut with minimal effort — still with all the beauty, but without the climb.
This chapter is warm, adventurous, and atmospheric — perfect for the nature lovers in your circle who enjoy sunsets at altitude, shared stories over dinner, and the once-in-a-lifetime feeling of waking up in the quiet of the high Alps.
Chapter 2 — For the Celebration Lovers
(Afternoon of Day 2 & Day 3)
The last 1.5 days gradually shift into a more glamorous, leisurely celebration.
After descending from Fluhalp, you’ll gather at Chez Vrony for a long, joyful alpine lunch — select wines, iconic views, and that unmistakable Findeln charm. This is when more friends can easily join the party.
And then, on the final evening, everything comes together in Zermatt for your grande finale — a night of music, laughter, and moments made to be remembered. This is the heart of the celebration, where all paths meet and everyone is invited.
