Day ticket
Welcome to the small but mighty ski paradise for families. When the sun slowly rises in the Kandertal, it doesn't take long for your perfect day of skiing or snowboarding to begin. After the gondola ride, you can head straight for the slopes or the beginners' paradise of Oeschiland.
Once your alarm clock has gone off, you'll hardly be able to wait to get on the slopes. Want to know where you can strap on your skis or snowboard depending on your level? We'll tell you on this page!
Due to massive infrastructure damage caused by mudslides in summer 2024 and the resulting safety concerns, the valley descent to Kandersteg will not open in winter 2024/2025. "The uncertain future in connection with the 'Spitze Stei' is like playing the lottery," says Christoph Wandfluh, explaining the difficult decision made by the Board of Directors of Cable car. From both a technical and economic point of view, renovating the valley descent is not justifiable and hardly feasible. In addition, the unpredictable dangers during continuous rain in winter represent an unacceptable risk.
