The Jaunpass connects the Simmental with the Freiburg Gruyère region. Surrounded by the pristine, rugged mountain landscape of the Gastlosen, cross-country skiers glide over the gentle mountain pass landscape. The area at around 1500 m above sea level is considered snow reliable. The route with some ascents and descents consists of several loops.

The entry to the trail is located directly in the center. Afterwards, the challenging route winds through flat sections, gentle hilly landscapes, and open, wide terrain. Along the way, cross-country skiers enjoy the fantastic view of the imposing Gastlosen mountain range. It is no coincidence that these rocks are also called the Dolomites of the Saanenland. On the other side, the view opens to the charming Abländschen valley, before revealing a view of the Simmental.

The entire trail covers around 16 kilometers. Since the route consists of several loops, it can also be shortened.

The night trail is illuminated on Wednesdays and Saturdays until 10 p.m.
