Acclaimed for its cuisine, the Hotel-Restaurant Moosegg also offers guests beautiful views over Langnau, the Emmental and as far as the Bernese Alps. Moosegg is also a popular place for family celebrations, and seminars also find that essential ‘vision’. The nearby Gasthof Waldhäusern is more rustic, with a garden restaurant and children’s playground, as well as equally impressive views.

There are several starting points for excursions to Moosegg: car drivers use the access roads from Emmenmatt near Langnau and Biglen-Arni while hikers and bikers have rather more possibilities: Lauperswil, Landiswil, Schwanden, Zollbrück, Rüderswil... A wonderful, over 4½- hour hike with good public transport connections leads from Biglen railway station to Moosegg, ending in Lützelflüh with a visit to the Gotthelf Stube, a tiny Gotthelf Museum in the storehouse next to the vicarage. Hikes on Moosegg, as in most of Emmental, often lead through extensive woodland, ideal on hot sunny days.

Under professional direction and with a large dedicated cast, the open-air theatre performances by the Moosegg Freilichttheater have gained an excellent reputation in recent years. Anyone wanting to travel home next day can find a room in the Hotel-Restaurant Moosegg.
