Recent Reviews

Gstaad delivers luxurious, relaxed skiing , mostly beginner-friendly. Scenic terrain includes Rougemont runs; off-piste for experts. A great family vibe with activities like snowshoeing. Cons: Low altitude (1050m) means spotty snow off peak season and pricey. Ideal for upscale getaways.
