Fun and games for young mountain fans

Various playgrounds are waiting to be discovered in the Bergwelt Gstaad. "Olga's cowshed" is an educational and fun indoor experience on the Rinderberg. Here, children can have fun milking cows, playing with the egg ball track or playing the glockenspiel - and learn all kinds of things about the four-legged mountain dwellers in the process.
