There are few places in Switzerland better to go fat biking than Gstaad. Its otherworldly vistas have made this sport increasingly popular amongst travellers. With a guide leading the way, you could pick between downhill runs or circular tours with these unique, thick-tyred bikes.

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.

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.

Explore in style by soaring over the Bernese Oberland in a helicopter. Different companies offer different routes, from flights over the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, or towards the Valais Alps closer to the Matterhorn. Access remote skiing trails or stop off for culinary delights in a charming alpine village.
