There is no shortage of hikes and panoramic viewpoints in the area around Les Diablerets. Whether in summer or winter, thanks to the Rando-Raclette, a tasty kit that can be picked up at the tourist office in Les Diablerets, it is possible to combine the pleasures of the palate with the discovery of magnificent landscapes!

My friends and I decided to go to Le Meilleret after the recent snowfall. The landscape is covered in snow and the afternoon promises to be glorious as the temperature rises slightly. We strap on our skis and head for the departure of the Diablerets Express gondola. As soon as we're in the cabin, we start dreaming about the fabulous raclette that awaits us up there!

From the village of ‘Les Mazots’, we take the opportunity to ski a few pistes. The fresh snow is very pleasant to ski on and at the end of the ski season there are relatively few people out and about. A dream! The sun is playing with the clouds and the atmosphere is getting warmer: it's time for a well-earned break.
Not far from the Les Diablerets snow park, we find a site that is ideal for setting up our raclette kit. We are facing south and are surrounded by beautiful conifers. Not far away, skiers and snowboarders are performing wonderful acrobatic figures and the terrain is relatively flat. In the distance, we can see the brightly lit summit of Grand Chamossaire.

Well, that's not all, but the food has to taste good too! Not only is the raclette kit very user-friendly and worked well all the time, but it also contains only local and authentic products. With the raclette cheese from the Laiterie du petit Diable, the food could only be excellent. Enhanced with its sausage and a good beer from the Brasserie des Diablerets, our snack was a huge success.

Taking care not to leave any rubbish on our way, we make our way back to Les Diablerets, where we enjoy a final descent through the fresh snow. Make sure you return the equipment before 9.30am the next day at the latest!
