Walk or Cycle/eBike to Alp Novai for a picnic

Walkers
Saturday morning, we’ll have a gentle walk along the river, largely on the flat, to a picnic site near Alp Novai.
eBikers
If you feel more energetic and have an eBike, we can go up to Berghaus Vereina first (a climb of about 900m) then down to Alp Novai.

The Main Event: Apero and Dinner in the hills overlooking Klosters

The main event is an Apero (weather permitting) on the terrace of the Hotel Alpenroesli in the hills above Klosters, and a main meal in the lovely wooden inside restaurant.
The Hotel is only accessible via a narrow private road, which isn’t ideal to drive on late at night. Also there is very little parking up there. So we will have transport to and from the Alpenroesli starting from and arriving at the Klosters Platz Railway station. This transport will be scheduled to connect with the taxi bus that goes from Klosters-Serneus-Saas.

Dress Code: Smart casual (we’re pretty laid back in the mountains !)

Meeting Date and Time:
Saturday 18th June 17:15
Meeting Location:
Klosters Platz Railway station
(Opposite Hotel Alpina)
Transport up:
Free Bus Service will run between ca 17:15 and 17:45
Transport return:
First bus at ca 22:00
(to connect with the taxibus at 22:33)
Last bus at ca 23:00
(to connect  with the last taxibus at 23:33)

The Menu

Dinner will be a 3 course menu, which has  a mixture of vegetarian and meat/fish options. We’ve chosen some local options to give you a flavour for Klosters and  Graubunden cuisine – but don’t worry they are all relatively normal !
