Fondue backpack in Gstaad in Switzerland

ME.ACTIVE - With its gentle topography and varied speciality cheeses, Gstaad offers the perfect mix for sophisticated bons vivants.

by Hanan

In Gstaad, there is nothing more natural than enjoying a delicious fondue surrounded by the mountains. In a place where fresh air, lush pastures and herbs provide the best possible foundation for outstanding cheese.

"On foot, by bike, by sledge or on snowshoes."

Two specially designated huts and two inordinately large fondue pots, each with enough room for up to eight people, provide the perfect backdrop for dining, socialising and marvelling at the unparalleled panoramic views. Whether you travel on foot, by bike, by sledge or on snowshoes, or even if you would like to choose your very own outdoor relaxation spot – anything is possible in Fondueland Gstaad. By the way: this fondue is the perfect mix at any time of year.

This is made possible thanks to the fondue backpack in a nostalgic design. It contains all of the ingredients needed for the irresistible outdoor experience: a full set of preparation equipment, either a traditional thick fondue or a particularly flavoursome truffle fondue made by the Schönried Dairy, as well as crusty fondue bread supplied by the Wehren Bakery, spices, fondue pot, warmer, plates and forks.
