The five-star Grand Hotel Bellevue, located in the Swiss mountain resort Gstaad, is the perfect base for anyone looking to book an outdoor activity break in Switzerland. Gstaad offers something to suit every age and ability - from action packed Alpine adventure such white water rafting, paragliding or Via Ferrata for the thrill seekers, to more gentle outdoor pursuits like hiking or playing golf.
The Grand Hotel Bellevue is currently offering an attractive short-break package which is ideal to experience some of the natural beauty of the area, indulge in healthy food and get pampered at the same time.
For just 998CHF (approximately £430) until 14th December, guests can enjoy the Autumn Essentials package, which includes three nights in a double room at the Grand Hotel Bellevue, a daily sumptuous breakfast buffet to fuel up for the day, three dinners in its award-winning Coelho Restaurant, unlimited access to the luxurious Bellevue spa and three amazing spa treatments (an invigorating reflexology massage, a mood-enhancing bath and a nourishing manicure).
Gstaad is a real mecca for thrill-seekers and nature-lovers and visitors can choose from an enormous variety of outdoor activities.
Whitewater rafting is one of the most popular extreme sports. Challenge yourself on clear mountain rivers flowing through spectacular Alpine gorges, with constantly changing rapids and exhilarating stretches of whitewater. Hydro speed and tubing can be tried as an alternative. For real adrenalin junkies sky diving or paragliding may be an option – admiring the stunning mountain scenery from above make it an unforgettable experience.
To enjoy the mountains you can either take a turn at rock climbing or go on an exhilarating ride along the trails and through the beautiful forests of this area. The views are spectacular and with a stop for lunch in a mountain restaurant this will be a day to remember. The Grand Hotel Bellevue offers professional mountain bikes free of charge for their guests.
To master the ultimate challenge you could also try Via Ferrata or “Iron Way” – high mountain routes using fixed climbing aids (ropes, rungs, pegs, ladders and bridges) situated on mountain climbing routes. They enable to pass over vertical sections of rock and areas that would otherwise require good climbing skills.
For a more leisurely way to spend the day 300km of well-posted walking trails over mountains surrounding Gstaad must be heaven for the impassioned hiker. The Grand Hotel Bellevue offers private tours with experienced mountain guides who are able to explain the mountains, the history of a trail or tell interesting anecdotes about the area.
For golf lovers, Gstaad also has an 18-hole golf course, one of the most beautiful in Switzerland, which is open from May to end of October.
After an action-packed day, the spa at the Grand Hotel Bellevue, one of the biggest and most exclusive in Switzerland, offers worn-out Indiana Joneses the opportunity to completely relax and get pampered in style. For gourmets, two award-winning restaurants “Coelho” and “Prado” await to spoil with the best of traditional Swiss and international culinary delights.
