The clear air and majestic mountains provide an ideal backdrop for jogging. You can train your stamina and endurance here - whether it's short tempo runs or long endurance runs.

Geographical location

The charming village lies at an altitude of around 1,800 meters above sea level and is surrounded by imposing peaks. This geographical location not only ensures spectacular views during your training, but also has an impact on your fitness: running at a higher altitude also challenges your body and therefore improves your performance.

Variety of jogging routes

There are numerous jogging routes in Saas-Fee that can be perfectly adapted to different levels of experience:

• Beginners: the flat routes along the village stream are ideal for all newcomers. A popular jogging route takes you through the picturesque forest path to Saas-Grund - a relaxed atmosphere with gentle inclines awaits you here.
• Advanced: If you already have a little more experience, you should definitely try the trail to the Mittelallalin cable car. This route offers a variety of terrain changes as well as some steeper sections.
• Pros: For real pros, we recommend the trail towards the Allalin Glacier - this challenging route will make your heart beat faster! It not only requires a good level of fitness, but also rewards you with an incomparable view of the surrounding mountain massif.

Varied surfaces

What makes jogging in Saas-Fee so special? The different surfaces! You run over soft forest floors, gravel paths and even asphalt roads - every type of terrain ensures that your training never gets boring. What's more, the natural ground is easier on your joints than hard asphalt!

Another plus point of jogging in this region is the many tourist attractions: During a lap around the town, you will pass the historic center; admire old wooden houses from the 18th century and let yourself be enchanted by the charm of this place.
