Hands-on cheesemaking, lakeside SUP tastings, and alpine fondue adventures near Interlaken and Lake Thun.
Fondue Villa & Garden is a specialty experience provider based in Unterseen, Bern, featured on The Adventure Collective. The business designs immersive cheese and fondue activities that highlight Swiss culinary traditions and alpine scenery.
Guests can choose from four distinct experiences: a **Cheese Farm Visit** (a 4–5 hour program beginning with an Alpine breakfast, a hands-on cheesemaking workshop, and a whey foot bath with mountain views); a 2.5-hour **Fondue Cooking Class & Cheese Workshop** (build a traditional Swiss cheese fondue, enjoy local cheeses, wine pairings, and interactive games with snowy mountain views); the **Sunset SUP, SIP & CHEESE** on Lake Thun (stand-up paddleboarding at sunset while sampling Swiss wine and cheeses with LED-lit boards and alpine vistas); and the **Fondue Backpack** (an outdoor hiking meal kit for enjoying a cheese fondue amid the Jungfrau region).
Each experience combines practical cheesemaking or cooking instruction with tasting, scenic settings, and social elements. The itinerary details and durations are provided per trip: the Cheese Farm Visit lists 4–5 hours and the Fondue Cooking Class lists 2.5 hours; other offerings specify equipment and components such as cheeses, bread, and wine for on-trail dining or lakeside tasting.
Fondue Villa & Garden operates in the Bernese Oberland around Unterseen and Interlaken, specializing in seasonal, location-based culinary adventures. The business emphasizes authentic Swiss cheese, memorable mountain or lakeside settings, and packaged experiences that include food, instruction, and guided activity components. Bookings and specific meeting locations are provided at time of reservation to ensure clear guest logistics always.
