Municipality
Villars-sur-Ollon is located at an altitude of 1300 m on a sunny, south-facing terrace overlooking the Rhone Valley. In the heart of the Vaud Alps, the resort subtly combines the modernity and charm of a mountain resort in the midst of magnificent nature.
The resort is located around 60 km from Lausanne and 120 km from Geneva airport. This makes it highly appreciated for its proximity to the major cities of the Lake Geneva region. The Bex - Villars - Bretaye train line and the various Chablais public transport bus routes make it an easily accessible vacation destination.
From charming mountain establishments to historic luxury hotels, the resort offers a wide range of holiday possibilities. The surrounding nature makes it an ideal place to enjoy a variety of sports in all seasons.
When the first snowflakes arrive, whether it's winter sports such as skiing, snowboarding, telemarking, tobogganing, ski touring, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing or snow hiking, there's something for everyone!
In fact, the 44 facilities and 135 km of runs in the Villars-Gryon-Les Diablerets and Glacier 3000 ski areas (reachable by shuttle from Les Diablerets), are as popular with families as they are with good skiers. The Bretaye sector (Villars) can be reached by gondola or cogwheel train. Snowparks, snow gardens, toboggan runs and free beginners' slopes complete the range of winter activities.
The variety of snowshoe trails, ski touring and cross-country ski itineraries will suit those in search of tranquillity in the resort's exceptional scenery. Finally, to reward sporting exploits, there's nothing like the many après-skis on offer in the resort and on the slopes!
The summer season is ripe for outdoor sports such as golf, hiking, paragliding and cycling of all kinds. Villars is in the immediate vicinity of climbing and Via-Ferrata sites. Mountain lakes and restaurants are within easy reach on foot or by public transport, thanks to 58km of marked trails and the cog railway. Chairlifts are partially open during the summer season, offering easy access to the highest peaks. What's more, the mountains can also be skied downhill with the Mountain Carts and Trottin'herbe.
The Villars alpine golf course is set in the heart of the mountains at 1,600 m altitude. Its 18-hole, par 69, 5'288m-long course will delight golfers thanks to its south-facing aspect, with a privileged view of Mont Blanc to the sound of cowbells.
The two sports centers, in operation all year round, offer a wide range of activities for visitors in all weathers: tennis, paddle tennis, squash, boulder climbing, swimming pool and slides, bowling rink, arcade games and billiards. For adults and young people aged 16 and over, the Maison des Sports offers a two-storey wellness center with heated outdoor pool and a brand-new 360° view fitness center.
As guests of Villars-Gryon-Les Diablerets, freebies and discounts on many activities are offered thanks to the Welcome Card. In winter and summer alike, children up to the age of 6 travel free of charge in and around the ski area.
Free, fun treasure hunts are also very popular with families. These itineraries allow youngsters to discover our region in a fun and playful way
