A resort in the Vaud Alps
Villars-sur-Ollon is a mountain village in the canton of Vaud, set in the Ollon valley above the Rhone plain. It is known as a year-round resort, with ski slopes in winter and trails, viewpoints and alpine pastures in summer. The surrounding peaks, including the Chamossaire ridge, give the area its open, dramatic character and make it a popular base for visitors from Lausanne and Geneva.
What to watch and when
The view is of high mountain terrain, so the scene changes most with cloud, fog and snow cover rather than with traffic or crowds. Depending on the view, you may see snowfields in winter, green slopes in summer, or cloud moving across the ridges. Clear mornings tend to give the sharpest light, while afternoons often bring cloud build-up in the warmer months.
Climate and getting around
Winters here are cold and snowy, and summers are mild, with conditions at altitude often differing from the valley floor. Late spring and early autumn are good for seeing the mountains with fewer visitors. Nearby cameras on the same site include Grand Chamossaire, Bretaye, Chaux Ronde and the Aiglon College view, which help you compare conditions across the area.
