About Glacier 3000 Tickets

Glacier 3000 Tickets is an independent guide. It is not run by, connected with, sponsored by or endorsed by Gstaad 3000 AG, the company that operates the Glacier 3000 cable cars, or by any tourist office or transport company. "Glacier 3000" and "Peak Walk" are names used by the operator; they appear here only to say which place this guide is about.

The official website is glacier3000.ch, and the operator sells tickets in its online shop at glacier3000.shop and at the ticket office at Col du Pillon. For the lift status on the day, weather closures and anything about a booking you have made, go to the operator.

Visitors ask the same questions before they go: how much the ticket is, what it includes, whether a pass gives a discount, when the cable car runs, how to get to Col du Pillon without a car, what there is to do at the top and whether a day trip from Geneva or Montreux is worth it. This site answers them on one page each, in plain words, with the source for every figure.

Prices, opening dates and times, ages and rules come from the operator’s own pages and published price lists. Bus and train times come from the Swiss public transport timetable, drive times from OpenStreetMap routing, and live weather readings from MeteoSwiss. Each page lists its sources and the month they were checked. Prices and times change, so confirm with the operator before you travel.

The photographs on this site are freely licensed images from Wikimedia Commons, credited to their photographers under each picture, and hotel photographs supplied through the Expedia Group affiliate programme. The site does not use the operator’s logo or photographs.

Some links go to GetYourGuide, which sells the cable car ticket and day trips, and to Expedia for hotels. When you book through them, they pay this site a commission at no cost to you. Links to the operator’s own shop earn nothing, and they are shown alongside the others so you can choose.
