Wake up to breakfast this morning and its time to take the train to the fabulous Glacier 3000. The glacier ski area between Gstaad and Les Diablerets. The destination in eternal snow offers terrific views from snow-covered mountains in the south to the smooth foothills of the northern Alps. Take a train from Interlaken to Gstaad. Take a Postal Bus from Gstaad to Col Du Pillon & from Col Du Pillon take an aerial cable car to Scex Rouge via Cabane. View Point - The View Point at 3000 metres offers an indescribable view onto the most beautiful alpine 24 peaks over 4000 metres at a glance. Just a short walk from Restaurant Botta, a wonderful view beginning with the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau to the Matterhorn reveals itself. It is hard to get enough of this 360-degree panorama. Peak Walk By Tissot - There is only one suspension bridge in the world that connects two mountain peaks. And it invites you to an adventure that you will not easily forget. The Peak Walk by Tissot is the highlight of the glacier adventure: It connects the smaller peak (View Point) with the 5 meter higher main peak (Scex Rouge) and takes all guests to incredible heights. The 107 metre long and 80 centimetre wide bridge offers a stunning view onto the Alps: Matterhorn, Mont Blanc, Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau are visible from the bridge and offer grandiose views, far off into the distance. Ice Express Chairlift - Standing at Scex Rouge brings you as close to eternal ice as you will ever get: The glacier is just a chairlift ride away. And on the glacier there are many activities like the Glacier Walk, Snow Bus Tour, Fun Park and much more. In order to get there, you just need to take a seat on the Ice Express chairlift. Lean back, relax and enjoy the view - and get excited about your trip to the eternal ice. Schlitteln Fun Park - Fun in the snow is not only possible on boards - but also on plastic plates! Sliding in the Fun Park at the lower end of the Ice Express chairlift is free of charge. It is for all those who do not ski or for families who want to enjoy the snow. Those equipped with plastic plates, and who are confident enough to go down the run, will enjoy a great white experience! It is the ideal winter sport for big and small and that one can enjoy together, in a group, with friends or with the whole family. Glacier Walk Dog Sled Riding (Chargeable) - On four paws through the snow: The Huskies are at home in the white splendor. The whole pack enjoys moving around in the snow - and this joy is contagious and felt by everyone watching them play in the snow. Even better is a romantic ride on a dogsled through the unique alpine area of Glacier 3000. The Huskies pull you through the beautiful glacier landscape and allow you to have a very special experience. Alpine Coaster (Chargeable) - 520° circles, 10 somewhat steep curves, 6 waves and 3 jumps promise action-packed speeds of up to 40 km/hour on a one kilometre stretch: The Alpine Coaster will quickly raise your adrenaline level and get your heart beating hard! You will experience weightlessness up to 6 metres above the ground on this high-flying adventure. You determine the speed with the brake lever and how many times you want to go down the toboggan run. Snow Bus (Chargeable) - Did you ever ride along in a snow cat? No? Then it is high time to do so! The Snow Bus from Glacier 3000 is the best opportunity to do this. It drives like a caterpillar over the crisp snow and has room for up to 20 people. And it is also the most pleasant way to discover the glacier area - from the comfort of your own seat. It is ride of a truly different nature - for young and old! Later in the afternoon its time to make your way back to the train station via the cable car and back to Montreux.
