Cheese Grotto Experience
Explore Gstaad with an important goal: tasting as much cheese as possible. Explore the ‘cheese cave’, and hear about the inner workings of a dairy farm in Gstaad. Or dine in a large fondue pot on the slopes, whilst surrounded by the mountain landscape.

Dog Sledding
In winter, Gstaad’s pristine, marshmallow-like landscape is a playground for adventure. Picture being pulled towards Glacier 3000 by huskies, with the cold, crisp air in your face. It’s a task they are overjoyed to take on. You will also be partaking in an activity that has survived thousands of years.

Golf and Minigolf
It doesn’t get much more Swiss than this. Overlooking the white-capped Bernese mountains, Gstaad-Saanenland Golf Club’s 18-hole golf course is not short on natural beauty or tranquillity. Alternatively, take the family to a mini golf course in Gstaad’s Sportzentrum for something a little crazier.

Gruyère’s Castle & Maison Cailler
Take a journey back through time with a journey to the medieval town of Gruyères. It has a glorious castle, built sometime between 1270 and 1282, which is now a Swiss heritage site of national significance, plus lots more to discover. It’s a short private transfer from Ultima Hotel Gstaad.
