Recharge your batteries in the plain and the mountains
The Alps are no longer for sportspeople only! Accessible, cultural, dynamic, modern, relaxing, and splendid: The region of Villars-Gryon-Les Diablerets-Bex offers a mountain atmosphere for all!
The adventure begins in the plain, near the main Swiss cities, Lake Geneva and the major transport routes. The Bex Salt Mines and the spa of Lavey-les-Bains offer discovery and relaxation, while gourmets like to taste the wines from the Chablais AOC region.
In the mountains, sports fans have a field day, be it in summer or winter. Skiing is the flagship activity, of course, but there are various recreation activities throughout the year, either in the resorts or at Glacier 3000, the paradise of sports and fun! The enchanting setting and the countless events also attract visitors who simply come here to enjoy a change of scenery in an authentic region.
A white paradise
Winter is obviously the ideal season for a stay in the Swiss Alps. The region’s slopes have something for all levels – be they good skiers or beginners.
The interconnected ski areas of Villars-Gryon and Les Diablerets as well as the tracks of Glacier 3000 offer a paradise for skiers of all levels. The snow gardens in all three destinations allow children to learn skiing in a fun way, while leaving their parents some time to spend on their own.
Other winter disciplines are available such as cross-country skiing, sled dog races and, above all, sledding on a dedicated 4-mile track.
Splendid mountain landscapes
The Swiss mountain chains are some of the most beautiful landscapes in the world. The Vaudois Alps offer many opportunities to admire them.
An excursion to Glacier 3000 - the culminating point of the canton of Vaud - will be one of the best memories to take home. This resort offers countless leisure activities and reveals a unique panoramic view of the Alps.
In the villages, there are several activities in the middle of nature such as mountain biking or treetop adventure parks, while Mother Nature's marvels in the La Thomasia Alpine botanical garden, the Dar cascade, Rocher Jaune as well as many other attractions enthral visitors.
Relax and enjoy
The air of the Alps is conducive to devoting a little time to yourself, to relaxing and having fun.
Nothing beats finishing a day of skiing or prolonging a summer evening in relaxing thermal waters before sitting down to a good dinner! The region cultivates this art of living in the spas of Lavey-les-Bains and Villars.
Good food is always on the menu, prepared by talented Chefs, whose recipes based on terroir products are a delight with the wines from the Chablais AOC region. The vines yield wines of quality, mainly Chasselas, a dry white wine variety.
The history of the Alps
The Alps will always remain a land to be conquered by humans looking for a challenge. Cultural sites tell the story of such conquests.
Go underground to gather precious salt or climb the summits in search of discoveries: the ancestors of the region’s inhabitants were true explorers. Follow them to the Bex Salt Mines, an impressive and unforgettable adventure for the whole family.
In the small village by the name of Vers-l’Eglise near Les Diablerets, a charming museum portrays the region's history with temporary exhibitions dedicated to sports, gastronomy, transport, and the arts.
