Nestled between 1,000 and 3,000 meters, and with a truly diverse offering, there is a slope for everyone in Gstaad. Thrill seekers will want to head to Tiger Run, and less-experienced skiers will delight in the heights of The Red Run slope of Glacier 3000, the only glacier ski area in the Bernese Oberland.

There’s nothing like a dramatic landscape to calm the mind. Gstaad is home to an abundance of lakes, rivers and waterfalls, all with their own character. For a gentle yet highly rewarding hike, head to the pristine Sanetsch, or discover Arnen or Lauenen. You’ll never get tired of places to cool down. 

Gstaad’s ice rink has many stories to tell. Locals hold it in high regard, with its location in the very centre of the village. Everyone’s welcome – so, whether it’s to attempt spins or turns as an ice skater, or join a game of ice hockey, we strongly recommend a visit.

Roam frozen trails or the Promenade as it twinkles in Christmas lights on horseback or in a horse-drawn carriage. You will quickly feel at one with nature, experiencing a joy that’s been at the heart of Switzerland for longer than anyone can truly remember.
