There isn't a chocolate egg or giant bunny in sight at this impressive Easter event in Saas Grund - just plenty of fun in the snow at Switzerland's highest open-air festival - the Schneegaudi.
Family games and sports competitions begin in the afternoon, followed by an open-air concert with leading rock and pop groups in the evening. Don't miss the waterslide competition, where skiers and boarders brave freezing temperatures to try and be the first to cross a giant pool. A bull riding contest takes place over the Easter weekend.
Night owls have the option to party until late as a cable car shuttles visitors up and down the mountain into the wee hours.
