Experience Bernese customs in team events

A warm oven, wood-panelled ceilings, the tick-tock of a grandfather clock. For a true taste of bygone days, simply step into the fully furnished apartment in the 1783 "Stöckli" – a smallish house on Swiss farms traditionally used to house the retired farming couple. Trubschachen's museum of local history is also home to a pottery workshop, where your team can get creative. Moreover, the typical Emmental hamlet in Trubschachen is an ideal starting point for hikes and bike tours.

Why is the world-famous Emmental cheese full of holes? Find out for yourself during a 1-hour tour for up to 25 people. You and your team will learn all about the traditional "king of cheeses" right where it is made, in the Emmental Show Dairy. Visit the show dairy farm situated at the heart of the idyllic Emmental, have a go at producing your own "team cheese" and sample the finest Emmental AOP cheese down in the ripening cellar.

In Switzerland's unique open-air museum on Ballenberg you can experience the country's customs, traditions and crafts with all your senses. More than 100 historic buildings are available, so you can put together an event that is as varied as your team. Bread making, wood carving and pottery are all on offer, or you could even take over the whole kitchen with your group and get cooking. Whatever you choose to do, you will be having lots of fun in an authentically traditional setting.

Surely not? Is that true? Yes, that's exactly what happened! Hear fascinating stories and learn historical facts during a private tour to the most beautiful locations of the Interlaken region. Expertly led by young local guides, Interlaken Walking Tours offers a new way to discover places and get the insider’s view on events, while you and your team enjoy the breath-taking scenery. The event is rounded off with a local product tasting event.

Flag throwing is one of Switzerland's oldest national sports. Let your team of between 20 and 120 people try their hand at this archetypal Swiss custom, supported and guided by professional flag throwers. Gather at the "Arena" with superb mountain views – or under cover in bad weather – where each team practices their own choreographed routine and performs it in front of the group. A lively event!

Even if a lone whoop has little to do with yodelling, it is a good start and it is certainly liberating! Ideally part of a two-component event, the Gstaad yodelling course strikes a humorous note and offers a welcome change from daily routine for your team of up to 20 people. Outside, surrounded by nature – or alternatively under cover – your group will learn the basic principles of traditional Swiss singing and folk music during an introductory yodelling course and alphorn workshop.

In keeping with Adelboden's motto "Bringing people together through experiences and emotions", the village tour starts off with all manner of interesting facts about past, present and future. The visit to the coffee roastery highlights how old customs still have their place in today's world. Thanks to advanced equipment, the roastery offers authentic insight into coffee processing, enabling everyone to have a go. The event finishes with drinks and nibbles.
