What is at stake on 4 April when Saanen votes on significant tourism and infrastructure projects?

At the upcoming General Assembly of the Municipality of Saanen tomorrow, 4 April 2025, residents will vote on three decisive projects that could shape the region's future. On the agenda: 

- The “revitalisation of the Rellerli” with a new gondola lift and mountain lodge, focused on nature-based, year-round tourism. 

- The “redevelopment of the Saanenmöser–Schönried tourism zone”, featuring new gondolas, upgraded cable car infrastructure, and mountain bike trails to strengthen both winter and summer offerings.

- The “modernisation of the Gstaad Sports Centre”, including a multi-functional sports and event hall closely linked with the new Gstaad Concert Hall. 

Each project involves crucial zoning decisions, planning contributions, or infrastructure upgrades, with long-term implications for residents, tourism, and regional development.
