Ride along in the Pistenbully

It is really quite impressive: the huge machinery, the technology and behind the scenes a look at how the white carpets that we happily glide over during the day with our cross-country skis are made. As co-pilot, you join the driver in a Pistenbully as he grooms the cross-country trails. You’ll receive interesting background information about the vehicles and trail preparation. Did you know that 233 km of trails are groomed each day in the holiday region Gstaad? That’s almost the distance from Gstaad to Zurich!

Stables visit

Pet small calves, watch a farmer milk the cows or help out in the stables. Life on the farm is challenging and wonderful at the same time. For those who have never been on a farm, we highly recommend this experience. Not only the animals are fascinating, but also how cheese is made from the milk of the cows and goats. Three farming families from the region offer exciting glimpses into their daily life.

The offer is available exclusively for Gstaad Card holders and can be booked online. Redeemable on site.
