Pumpkin hunt in Château-d'Œx
Description
It's autumn that the Pays-d'Enhaut is decked out in its most beautiful colours... It's at this time of year that the pumpkins come to wander, play and hide in the streets of the village of Château-d'Œx.
These round, orange damsels will play many tricks on your children! To help you, a play guide is available at the Tourist Office in the village. Equipped with your guidebook, start looking for them! Listen up! The pumpkins reveal that the first of them is hiding in the tourist office... Then they ask you to answer the riddles to find the next ones and solve the "mystery" word. This will allow you to collect your reward at the Grand Café Early Beck, or at the Château-d'Œx tourist office. At each spot, you'll also need to find the colours to draw the "surprise" drawing. Like autumn and its warm tones, don your best colours and dress up for the occasion! Along the way, you can take a photo under the arch at one of the "Pumpkin Hunt" spots. Then send your photo with your contact details to take part in the competition for the best, most original and scariest disguise! You'll then be entered into a draw to win one of the 3 prizes offered by the Commune of Château-d'Œx!
