About Gsteig bei Gstaad

Gsteig bei Gstaad is a German-speaking village of just under a thousand people at 1,184 m, which grew up along the roads over the Col du Pillon and the Sanetsch Pass. Its church of St Theodul was consecrated in 1453, and a castle built in the valley to control the passes now survives only as a ruin. Near the Col du Pillon, in the locality of Reusch, an aerial tramway climbs to the Scex Rouge. The homes are scattered around the village and are mostly small, sleeping two to six, with a garden in only a few. Saanen and Gstaad are where you go for a wider choice of places to eat.
