Family travel: Winter in Villars and Les Diablerets
Published on 10.03.2026
In January 2026, we had the pleasure of welcoming Nos Curieux Voyageurs to Villars and Les Diablerets. After a beautiful week of snow followed by sunshine, the conditions were perfect for the winter season. A family stay with little James, 3 years old, who got to discover the joys of the mountains: sledging, his first ski runs, and a fresh-air walk all the way up to Glacier 3000.
They share their story of this family holiday in the heart of the Alpes Vaudoises, during which they tried out a wide range of activities.
