Enjoy nature with the locals
“Wit awäg vom Lärm vo der Stadt” ["Get away from the noise of the city”] This is how the Swiss dialect band Span sang their evergreen “Louenesee”. We show you the local flora and fauna that inspired them to write this song in an authentic and exclusive way. Discover unknown spots and places in the middle of the untouched mountain world together with the Saanenlanders. Whether you go on an exploration tour with the Lauenensee ranger and spot a bird paradise or explore the botany of the mountains with the flower kings Willy Aegerter and Bert Inäbnit - Gstaad is genuine, rustic and close to nature. An experience not to be missed!
Be a mountain farmer once in your life
The day starts early in the morning with the local farmer: milking the cows, mucking out the barn and driving the cattle onto the lush fields. Then it's on to the potato harvest and fence maintenance. If this is too demanding for you, you can simply relax in the sun, watch the animals graze peacefully and enjoy a delicious piece of mountain cheese. Farmer Willi Bach offers this authentic experience on the picturesque Alp Beust. Here, pleasure and tradition can be combined in a wonderful way. An adventure not to be missed!

Discover Alpine “gold” (cheese) by bike or on foot
By bike or on foot, you can discover the most beautiful spots in the region and get to know the gold of the Alps better. During a visit to the cheese maturing camp, the local Alpine farmers reveal their own personal recipe. Or even cheesier: climb the mountain with a packed fondue backpack from the local dairy and enjoy the Swiss national dish in one of the four oversized caquelons dotted around the vacation region. An experience not to be missed!
