Detailed Description
Embark on an unforgettable alpine adventure through the picturesque village of Les Diablerets, nestled in the heart of the Swiss Alps. Comfortably seated on a panoramic bus, enjoy spectacular views of Lake Geneva and the surrounding mountains as you travel up the Col du Pillon valley.
Next, board the cable car to reach Glacier 3000, where a unique experience awaits you at an altitude of 3,000 meters. From this height, the world opens up before you with breathtaking panoramas of iconic peaks such as the Matterhorn, the Eiger, and even Mont Blanc. Cross the spectacular Peak Walk suspension bridge, the only one in the world connecting two mountain peaks. This crossing offers you a 360° view of the Swiss Alps, a true invitation to contemplation.
During your free time, take the opportunity to enjoy a traditional Swiss picnic, featuring local cheeses and wine, while admiring the glaciers stretching out as far as the eye can see. For a dose of adventure, sled down the slopes at the Fun Park, walk through snowy landscapes, or take a thrilling ride on the alpine coaster, Europe’s highest roller coaster. This unique blend of nature, relaxation, and adrenaline will captivate both young and old alike.
After this high-altitude adventure, the descent brings you back to the shores of Lake Geneva, where you will discover Montreux, a city renowned for its Mediterranean microclimate. Stroll along its famous palm-lined promenade, and immerse yourself in the unique cultural atmosphere of this town, known for hosting the annual Montreux Jazz Festival. Don’t miss a visit to the iconic Freddie Mercury statue, who found inspiration here. Wander through the elegant boutiques, sample local delicacies, or simply enjoy the serenity of the area before boarding the bus for a relaxing return journey.
