The area surrounding Camping Jaunpass is a paradise for outdoor lovers. Hiking trails of varying difficulty radiate from the site, allowing visitors to explore the alpine terrain, forests, and meadows of the Bernese Oberland. Mountain biking enthusiasts will enjoy routes leading toward the village of Jaun, approximately two hours by bike, offering stunning vistas along the way.

For cultural excursions, the nearby towns of Boltigen and other villages in the Simmental region offer quaint streets, local markets, and traditional Swiss architecture. Nature enthusiasts can go birdwatching, spot local wildlife, or enjoy a day by alpine streams.

Camping Jaunpass is ideal for travellers who enjoy alpine surroundings and outdoor adventures but is also perfect for families seeking a peaceful yet activity-filled holiday. While the site is well-equipped, guests should bring appropriate mountain clothing, hiking boots, and sunscreen, as the alpine weather can change rapidly. Pets are welcome but should be supervised to maintain safety and harmony on site.

The campsite is car-accessible, and parking is available nearby, though guests who wish to explore the area by bike should plan accordingly, given the mountain terrain. Quiet times are observed in the evenings to ensure all guests can enjoy the tranquillity of the alpine environment.

For those who prefer convenience, the onsite shop and snack bar cater to daily needs, but for larger shopping trips, Boltigen and other local towns offer supermarkets, restaurants, and cafes within a short drive. Early booking is strongly recommended, especially during summer and holiday periods, as the combination of mountain views, family-friendly facilities, and outdoor activities makes Camping Jaunpass a highly sought-after destination in the Bernese Alps.
