The family mountain Wispile delights with stunning views, gentle slopes and an adventurous sled ride down to Gsteig. The 40-minute walk to the start follows a scenic ridge path with impressive views of the Spitzhorn. The Zückerli and Rüti lifts are ideal for children and beginners taking their first turns in the snow.

On the Wasserngrat, there are a total of three pistes of different levels of difficulty. The two easier slopes are also suitable for families. However, beginners should keep their hands off the black marked slope, because it's a tough one: the Tiger Run is considered the steepest piste in the Saanenland. It is therefore a highly enjoyable challenge for experienced skiers with good skiing technique and sufficient physical condition. If you also enjoy snowshoe hiking, we have the perfect tour for you. Feel free to check it out!

The cross-country ski run on the snow-guaranteed high plateau impresses with a varied route through the gentle hilly landscape. It enchants with a fantastic view from Stockhorn to Les Diablerets. The toboggan run from Sparenmoos to Zweisimmen, which leads across snow-covered meadows and through woodland sections, provides pure sliding pleasure. For hikers, Sparenmoos offers a circular hike with beautiful views of the Simmental, western Bernese Oberland and the Vaud Alps.

The Heiti and Lauenen ski lifts offer family fun on natural snow slopes according to the motto "small but nice". While the young ones let off steam on the piste or in the powder snow or build "great kickers" themselves, mum and dad can enjoy themselves in the nearby catering establishments.
