Belle Epoque: A winter week like in days bygone

The Belle Epoque was an age that saw culture, science and society flourish in Europe around the year 1900. Tourism also experienced a dramatic upturn: the first inns were upgraded to become hotels, an increasing number of people discovered the pleasure of travel and many winter sports which are still popular today established themselves.

Kandersteg brings this era back to life. In the last week of January, the Belle Epoque returns to Kandersteg with a comprehensive range of sporting and social events.
