Full-Day Trip to Riviera Col du Pillon & Glacier 3000

4.6 (751 verified reviews)

Who This Trip Suits

A day from Geneva to Glacier 3000 above Les Diablerets, where snow lies all year, with free time in Montreux on the way back. It is rated 4.6 from 751 reviews.

The coach takes you to Col du Pillon, the base station near the chalet village of Les Diablerets. With the cable car option you go up to the glacier at about 3,000 metres and cross the Peak Walk, a 108-metre suspension bridge between two summits, with more than 24 peaks over 4,000 metres in view; the fun park and the chairlift are included with it when they are open. Around 3 pm the coach leaves for Montreux, with free time by the lake before Geneva. Guests this summer recommend picking a clear day, because cloud can close activities at the top.

Practical points from the listing: take warm clothes, sunglasses and sun cream; visibility is not guaranteed and it can snow; stops in Lausanne and Montreux are available on the way; and the Alpine Coaster is not included. On your own, a return on the cable car with the Peak Walk costs CHF 89 for an adult (glacier3000.ch, 2025-26 season price, checked October 2026). Glacier 3000 closes for its annual maintenance in late autumn, and this tour sells dates again from 7 November 2026.

The price is from US$96 a person (checked October 2026), with free cancellation up to 24 hours before. For the riviera without the snow, see the Montreux guide.
