Château-d'Oex and Rougemont are situated in the wide sunny high alpine valley known as
the Pays d'Enhaut.
Its average altitude of 1000 meters is ideal for those in pursuit of recreation, rest,
sports, active leisure in a pristine beauty.
With an alpine flora and fauna which thrive in peace and harmony; it is home to the
last golden eagles. From a winter sports fan's perspective the great thing about
Château d'Oex and Rougemont is that the lift ticket - which includes some of
the most terrain available on one pass in the world has several unique assets!
A key one is that it allows holders to hop on to the mountain train or bus and ride
along from one great ski area to the next.
After Château-d'Oex's own slopes there are those of Rougemont -where
you can leave the train and walk over to the gondola which takes you up
to the mountain tops; then it's a similar story at Saanen (after you've
crossed the language border in to German speaking Switzerland!), and
beyond Gstaad at Saanenmoser and Zweisimmen. Gstaad is the point where
you can hop off the train and on to the bus over towards les Diablerets
and Villars, with the famous Diablerets glacier the first stop.
The transport system continues right through the day and the evening so
there's no mad rush to catch the last ski bus home at the end of your day
on the slopes.
