Don't book fixed dates before December
Nobody can guarantee snow. A value voucher lets the recipient pick a date once the snow arrives.
The winter voucher unlocks hundreds of snow experiences across Switzerland. From classic sledging at the Eiger Express to beginner ski lessons and moonlit snowshoe tours – there's a fit for every level and region. Redeemable at mountain railways, ski schools and partners in the Bernese Oberland, Valais, Graubünden and Central Switzerland.
In practice that means: sledging below Eiger and Mönch, first turns with a ski school, snowshoe tours away from the pistes or a winter summit ride with a view. The voucher leaves the choice open – a real advantage in winter sports, where dates follow the snow.

Insider tips for winter gifts
How to gift Swiss winter experiences strategically.
March is often a better bet than February
More daylight, often better weather, fewer tourists. An insider's choice for ski gifts.
Ski school rather than a ski pass for beginners
The first hours with an instructor make all the difference. The ski pass can come later.
How much does a winter gift cost?
The winter experiences on this page start from CHF 10; around half cost less than CHF 199. Sledging and winter hikes sit at the lower end, ski lessons above – a value voucher covers both.

Frequently asked questions
What happens to the winter voucher if there is no snow?
Nothing – that's exactly what it's built for. Instead of a fixed date you gift free choice: the recipient books when conditions are right. The voucher stays valid for 2 years, across two winter seasons if needed.
Which winter experiences can the voucher be used for?
For every winter offer on swissactivities.com: sledge runs, ski schools, snowshoe tours and winter mountain railways in regions like the Bernese Oberland, Valais, Graubünden and Central Switzerland.
When does redeeming pay off most?
Often in March: more daylight, usually steadier weather and less crowding than during the February sports holidays. Stay flexible and you catch the best days.
Does the voucher suit ski beginners?
Yes – especially for getting started. The first hours with a ski school beat any ski pass. The voucher keeps both open: the course first, the rest for the slopes.
