On the slopes

Perfect for families, ski holidays in Villars offer some great nursery slopes, the best of which are near the mountain railway. There's plenty of cruising for intermediates - try the area around Le Mazot - while experts should head for the challenge of the Combe d'Audon run. Boarders will love the snowpark in Villars-Bretaye, which offers hips, rails, jumps, a DJ bar and terrace, whilst elsewhere you'll find 4 more snowparks at Glacier, Diablerets, Villars, and Gryon.

Ski area :

If you ski Villars you are in the Swiss ski region of Vaud.

Off the slopes

With 4,800 beds in the local hotels, rental apartments and traditional chalets, you'll find plenty of good choice of accommodation around this Swiss ski resort. Evenings tend to be fairly calm - this is a place that offers more in the way of good food and romantic evenings than it does late night carousing. However, there are a handful of bars and discos to keep the partygoers happy until the early hours of the morning.
