About Gstaad, Switzerland
Gstaad is a picturesque and glamorous resort, surrounded
by 250 kilometres of ski-able terrain. It is a traditionally-styled
village with charming alpine chalets and remarkable surrounding
mountain scenery. Gstaad lies on northeast of the Geneva
Lake, about two hours from the Geneva gateway airport. A
ski bus runs from Geneva via Lausanne and Montreux. These
two cities are also worth to be visited. On a bad weather
day, a fine sightseeing opportunity is to visit the spectacular
Olympic museum in Lausanne. Gstaad is renowned as a higher
class resort, but it is available for 'ordinary holidaymakers',
too. It provides many attractions - especially for those
who can happily spend time on trains looking at the landscapes
without wasting its precious trail time.
The slopes in and near the town centre are excellent
for beginners and intermediates. Those looking for variety
and more challenging runs can take advantage of the Gstaad
Super Ski Region pass which covers the ski areas of Gstaad,
Chateau d'Oex, Rougemont, Sannen, Villars, Leysin and the
Diablerets glacier. This area offers more than enough piste
to keep everyone happy. In the entire region there are 69
lifts, half of which are surface lifts, 155 miles
of groomed trails and slopes, the highest
vertical descent of 6,400 feet, and a longest run of nine
miles. Advanced skiers will find some good slopes around
the Schonreid and Saanenmoser area, and the Diablerets glacier
which has some long challenging reds. Heli skiing is another
attraction for really adventurous visitors. For the intermediates
there are endless tree-lined blue and red runs situated
in Schonreid and Saanenmoser and there is a great selection
of intermediate skiing at Les Diablerets, Villars and Leysin.
Beginners should head for the Wispile and the Eggli lifts,
which are not far from the resort centre and offer gentle
tree lined runs ideal for children. The ski school in the
area is also highly recommended.
Gstaad has an excellent selection of bars, restaurants and clubs,
which makes the local nightlife quite attractive, but not
too wild. Apres ski wandering in the pedestrian zone of Gstaad
might be an adventure, too. Lively nightlife of the town offers
a lot of entertainment. The most enjoyably spent evening is guaranteed
in the village of Lauenen. In the family-run restaurant of Alpenland,
a daytime ski instructor turns into 'Master of Ceremony' jumping
up on the table with his guitar and doing an impersonation of
Elvis Presley. This resort has a reputation of being quite expensive
but there is sufficient choice for everyone to find a restaurant
or a nightspot to suit their budget.
