Les Diablerets is a mountain village at about 1,150 metres at the head of the Ormonts valley, in the Vaud Alps. Above it rises the Diablerets massif, a wall of rock and ice that culminates at about 3,200 metres and gives the village its name, "the little devils", after old legends about rockfalls attributed to devils playing in the mountain.
The village has kept a quiet, traditional character: wooden chalets with carved balconies, a church, small hotels and a few shops along a single main street. It is part of a ski area shared with Villars and Gryon, and it is the gateway to the Glacier 3000, where snow lasts most of the year.
For Geneva Transfer Booking, Les Diablerets appeals to travellers looking for calm, families, and visitors heading to the glacier, as well as guests who combine it with Gstaad, just over the pass.
For centuries the Ormonts valley lived from mountain farming. In summer, families took their herds to the high pastures and made cheese in alpine huts; in winter, the valley was cut off for long periods. The legends of the "diablerets" were strengthened by the great rockfalls of 1714 and 1749 on the southern, Valais side of the massif, which buried the pastures of Derborence and marked the memory of the whole region.
Tourism arrived in the late 19th century with the first hotels, and skiing developed in the 20th century. The building of the cable car to the glacier, from the Col du Pillon, opened the high mountain to everyone and later became the Glacier 3000 that visitors know today.
The village ski area usually runs from December to early April, with the busiest weeks during Christmas and the February holidays. The Glacier 3000 opens earlier in autumn and closes later in spring than most resorts, depending on snow. In summer, from June to September, the glacier attractions, walking trails and lakes draw day visitors and families. Late spring and November are the quietest periods.
The trip covers about 130 kilometres. Google calculates about an hour and forty minutes without traffic. The route stays in Switzerland: the motorway follows Lake Geneva past Lausanne, enters the Rhône valley at Villeneuve and leaves it at Aigle. From Aigle, a mountain road climbs the Ormonts valley through Le Sépey to the village.
The valley road is well maintained and cleared in winter, with bends in the upper section. Our vehicles run on winter tyres and carry chains. From Les Diablerets, the Col du Pillon leads on towards the Glacier 3000 station and, beyond the pass, to Gstaad. In winter, check with us before planning a direct route to Gstaad over the pass.
The Glacier 3000 cable car leaves from the Col du Pillon, a few minutes from the village by car, and climbs to the Scex Rouge station near 3,000 metres. At the top, visitors find one of the most spectacular viewpoints in the Alps: on clear days, the panorama reaches the Matterhorn, Mont Blanc and the Bernese Alps.
The Peak Walk, a suspension bridge stretched between two summits, lets visitors walk above the void with the glacier below. In winter and spring, the glacier offers high-altitude skiing; in summer, visitors walk on the snow, ride the alpine coaster and take short excursions with guides.
Your chauffeur can drop you at the Col du Pillon station and wait or come back at an agreed time, which makes the glacier an easy day trip from Geneva.
The village ski area climbs the slopes facing the massif and links with Villars and Gryon. It suits families and intermediate skiers, with quiet slopes and few queues outside the peak weeks. The glacier adds high-altitude runs and a long season. Cross-country skiers and snowshoers find marked trails in the valley.
Mountain cooking in the Ormonts means local cheese, fondue, raclette, dried meats and hearty soups, with the white wines of the Chablais vaudois around Aigle. Small restaurants in the village and at the Col du Pillon serve generous portions in a calm atmosphere.
Day trips to the glacier. Leave Geneva early to enjoy the clear morning views at the top; we drive you to the Col du Pillon and back.
Families. The quiet village and the gentle slopes suit young children. Ask for child seats with their ages.
Combined trips. Les Diablerets combines well with Gstaad or Villars; tell us your itinerary when booking.
Ski groups. A V-Class or a Sprinter keeps everyone together with skis and boots.
A Mercedes E-Class suits one to three passengers with suitcases; the S-Class offers the most comfort. With skis and a week of luggage, the V-Class is the right choice, for up to six or seven passengers. For larger groups, the Sprinter is available on request.
