Morteratsch Alpine Cheese Dairy

70 years after the last cheese left Alp Nuova, the Pontresina dairy is once again producing cheese over an open fire. Guests can watch how the Heutaler or Gletschermutschli are made in the traditional way and enjoy an alpine brunch or an alpine afternoon snack in the fresh air.

Tip: The alpine cheesemaker pours the warm fresh whey into a wooden vat immediately after making the cheese. The whey bath relaxes and nourishes the skin.
