Full description

Discover the picturesque area of Les Diablerets (little devils) in the heart of the Alps Vaudoises at Col du Pillon. Made up of chalets, this village has an amazingly preserved heritage. Don't miss the majestic 3000–meter high glacier. Dominate the snowy peaks and take on the Peak Walk, the world's first suspension bridge connecting two peaks. At 108 meters long, discover more than 24 peaks over 4000 meters on the walkway.

Take advantage of the fun park where sleds are waiting for you. In summer, try a descent in the Alpine Coaster, Europe's highest tracked toboggan run.  If you prefer to stay in the village of Diablerets, take a stroll along the river and explore the beautiful landscape. Around 3:00 PM, head back to the bus to return to Montreux, and enjoy some free time to explore this artistic city before returning to Geneva.

Such a fantastic trip. Amazing views from the top of the bridge at glacier 3000, totally worth going. Easy, no stress the whole way. Our guide Ivars (roger) was THE BEST, he was funny and kept us all entertained on the bus journey. We enjoyed some time in Montreux too, highly recommend it, would love to go back!

Was a very lovely and wonderful experience and really is one for the bucket list. Normandy our tour guide was so great the whole time who gave us tips on where to go and gave us history throughout the journey. The only thing we couldn’t do which we didn’t realise was the alphine coaster due to it only being open in the summer and the cable car down the ski slope as the weather conditions wouldn’t allow it. It was quite snowy when we went so we couldn’t see all of the views however this was not to be helped but nevertheless the views were still beautiful and we had an amazing time. Personally I think it is overly expensive but Switzerland is expensive regardless so to get a good trip you have to consider it. Amazing day though we will never forget it, no regrets

I had a comfortable time. It was a lot better than I expected. Make sure you show up to their office location and not the parking lot. The drive to the summit is actually faster than described. I believe it took around 1.5 -2 hours for me. The driver was friendly and the shuttle was extremely comfortable. I recommend sitting in the back of the shuttle for the best view as it has best view.
