Perched at 1300m, Villars-sur-Ollon enjoys a privileged location due to its southern exposure, its panoramic position, and its mountainous terrain filled with the mildness of the pre-Alps. Its ski area is linked with that of Gryon and thus offers ski enthusiasts more than 100km of marked slopes. In addition, the latter is connected to Glacier 3000 and thus offers many additional off-piste skiing possibilities.
In winter, Villars and its surroundings are not limited to downhill skiing. Indeed, the resort offers a wide range of possibilities for ski, snowshoeing or cross-country skiing, with probably the most beautiful cross-country trails in all of French-speaking Switzerland. In summer, hiking is king, and mountain biking trails are numerous. The valley also has a vast playground for climbing and initiation to great races, with in particular the Miroir d’Argentine, the largest limestone wall in Europe.
The resort is cosmopolitan, thanks in particular to its international schools. You will meet all possible age groups there, and many families. Many nice bars or restaurants await you of course in the village or on the slopes!
Located in the southwest of Switzerland, several road accesses are possible to access the station (15 km from the motorway). A rail line is also in place from Bex.
