- Brief description
-
Ancient legends tell that God took a break by the creation of the world, rested and that his handprints created the Saanenland. The four valleys of the region are said to represent the four fingers of the hand. They can be combined in any way and form the basis for all shorter rides in the region of Gstaad.
