Kandersteg: ski holidays in the Bernese Oberland

Relaxed winter sports enjoyment at the Oeschinensee and Sunnbüel ski resorts

The picturesque Swiss ski resort of Kandersteg is located in the Bernese Oberland region. Thanks to direct access to the Oeschinensee and Sunnbüel ski resorts, winter sports enthusiasts can be on the extensive and perfectly groomed slopes in no time at all. Both ski resorts are a true winter paradise, especially for beginners and families.

Easy slopes and a manageable network of ski runs make first attempts on skis or wide, sweeping turns down into the valley all the more relaxing. If you’re up for some more action-packed descents, there are also several medium-difficulty and challenging slopes to conquer. In Sunnbüel-Kandersteg, skiers can even test their downhill speed on a timed racecourse.

Always right there with you: the breathtaking mountain vistas of the Bernese Oberland. For the best view, we recommend you rent your goggles on site at INTERSPORT Rent. The RENTertainers in Kandersteg will gear you up with the latest ski and snowboard equipment.
