From Saanen, you can easily reach the Mittelberg Pass by postbus. From there, this long and spectacular hike leads to the Grubenberghütte and then over the Alp Le Savigny to Rodomont and down to Pont de la Scie.
From Mittelberg, it goes directly quite steeply up to the Grubenberghütte. Then it goes up only a little and especially along the impressive mountain slopes of Dent de Ruth and Dent de Savigny. Along the way, you may encounter alpine orchids or marmots at the right time. Via Alp Savigny and Combette, the route descends to the Col de la Forcla. From there, continue to Les Rodomonts to enjoy the view over the Saanenland and Pays-d'Enhaut, and then steeply down into the Grischbach valley to Pont de la Scie, where the postbus can take you back to Saanen.

Also a very beautiful hike from Abländschen.

    The holiday region Gstaad is located in the southwest of Switzerland, directly on the border to the French-speaking part of the country. The region is easily accessible by train or car from the Thun Lake region, the Lake Geneva area, and the Greyerzerland. Direct connections to the European high-speed train network and all international airports in Switzerland ensure a time-saving and pleasant arrival. The main means of transport in the Gstaad region are the "MOB" train (Montreux-Oberland Bernois) and numerous postbus lines.
