Saanen - (Gessenay in French), a charming and picturesque village, represents the essence of the historical Saanenland region. Right on the “Röstigraben” - literally the 'border of the rösti'- the symbolic edge between French- and German-speaking parts of Switzerland. Listed among the “townscapes of Switzerland most worthy of protection”, this 1,010 metre high village definitely deserves a visit. Photo © credits to Marie-Madeleine & Giuseppe
