Visible accessibility

Together, we want to provide people with limited mobility with objective and unbiased information about the accessibility of our services.

Please help us!

As a member of the OK:GO initiative, Gstaad Saanenland Tourism supports all regional (tourism) providers in collecting and publishing information about the accessibility of their infrastructure. No distinction is made between ‘barrier-free’ and ‘not barrier-free’. The data collected on the ginto app makes it easier for our guests and locals with limitations to plan their trips, including people with disabilities, senior citizens and families with prams. Participation is free of charge and over 100 businesses are already part of the initiative.

A hand is holding a mobile phone displaying a page of the ginto app. The ginto app logo is visible in the bottom left-hand corner. It is a turquoise square with a small g and a dot in the top right-hand corner.
