Gstaad and Saanenland self-guided walking holidays

Self-guided walking holidays in Gstaad and Saanenland Switzerland for summer and winter

At the heart of Saanenland is the chalet village of Gstaad and five nearby valleys. Whilst Gstaad itself sits in an attractive, wide valley, the mountains around range in height from 1,000 to 3,000 metres. Access to the mountains is by way of cable-car, chairlift, train and bus and once atop any of them, a glorious, wide-ranging panorama can be enjoyed, as well as many walking tracks along the mountain ridges, down valleys and through forests. There is Lake Lauenen with its waterfalls and moors, the Wispile, the Rellerli with access to Sparenmoos, Zweisimmen and the Jaun Pass, the Horneggli and from Zweisimmen, the Rinderberg and the Glacier 3000 access to Les Diablerets. From Les Diablerets and the Videmanette cable car there are more high-altitude walks. The evenings in Gstaad can be spent in cosy, chalet-restaurants in the village centre. Mountain bikes are also available.
