Hiking Delights in Autumn

As the air cools, summer comes to an end and the colourful autumn awakens. When hiking in the mountains in autumn, your gaze wanders into the distance, the scent of falling leaves and woodfire smoke is in the air. This is the last chance to soak up the warming rays of the sun for the winter. The hiking trails in the Destination Gstaad take you through some very varied scenery. Along the way you will discover moorlands, deep gorges, Alpine valleys, high mountain peaks and, of course, the beautifully located Alpine restaurants. With more than 300 km of signposted and well maintained trails and paths, the holiday region of Gstaad is a veritable paradise for hikers.
