About
Bergrestaurant Sunniggratli sits at 1977m on the Sunniggrat ridge in Uri, above the village of Engelberg. Reach it from Engelberg in 2.5 hours via the Tritt–Surenenpass route, or in 3 hours via Gerschnialp. The hut works well as a day-trip destination or as a base for ridge traverses toward Titlis.
The restaurant accommodates 25 guests in simple rooms. Meals are served daily—phone ahead to confirm menu options and availability. Drinking water is on-site. This is a working mountain restaurant rather than a dedicated alpine hut, so expect straightforward hospitality and basic mountain food rather than luxury. It operates year-round, though snow can make the approach challenging in winter months.
Book by email or phone directly with the restaurant. Summer weekends fill quickly, especially July and August—contact at least 2 weeks ahead. Outside these peak months, same-week bookings often work. The hut is popular with day-hikers from Engelberg, so lunch and afternoon visits can be crowded despite sleeping capacity being small.
