From the Wispile mountain station, a winter hiking trail leads over the Wispilegrat to the Chrinetritt and, as a popular toboggan run, on to Gsteig. Parallel to the winter hiking trail there are wonderful deep snow fields over the entire ridge which are ideal for snowshoeing. In addition, there is a wonderful view of the mountain world of the Saanenland. Halfway to the Chrinetritt, at the alpine huts of the Vorder Höji Wispile, you will find a wooden fondue caquelon. Here you can enjoy the fondue you have brought with you in unique surroundings. A little later, at Bergmoos, the snowshoe trail separates from the winter hiking trail. Through woods and over meadows you reach your destination, Feutersoey.

Please take note of the operating dates for lifts and cable cars.
