From the Wispile mountain station, a winter hiking trail leads over the Wispile ridge to Chrinetritt and continues as a popular toboggan run to Gsteig. Parallel to the winter hiking trail, there are wonderful deep snow fields along the entire ridge that are ideal for snowshoeing. In addition, there is a wonderful view of the mountain world of the Saanenland. Halfway to Chrinetritt, at the alpine huts of Vorder Höji Wispile, you come across a wooden Fondue Caquelon. Here you can enjoy your brought fondue in a unique setting. Shortly thereafter, at Bergmoos, the snowshoe trail splits off from the winter hiking trail. Through woods and over meadows, you reach the destination, Feutersoey.

Please observe the operating hours of the mountain railways.
