Rougemont forms part of the Gstaad super ski region, a series of 9 chalet villages at an altitude from 1,000 to 1,400 metres. It is reputed as one of the most stunning parts of the swiss alps, with strict planning laws and picture postcard scenery, equally beautiful in both summer and winter. The region has remained genuinely alpine with local farmers, cheese makers, and traditional paper cutters still plying their trade. A strong friendly local culture sits well beside some of the worlds finest mountain hotels, spas and wellness retreats, superb restaurants, and an abundance of sporting and cultural events throughout the year. The Gstaad moto is 'come up, slow down' and with the fresh mountain air, beautiful scenery and local produce it is difficult not to feel instantly relaxed. There is also adventure to be had from a plethora of mountain sports (season dependent); from skiing and snowboarding (inc terrain parks), to paragliding, hot air ballooning, whitewater rafting, mountain biking, to cross country skiing, hiking, tennis, golf, ice skating, and indoor swimming. Plus for night owls, there several great spots to dance the night away.

The skiing is very good and varied, with the added bonus of slopes being often quiet. It's almost unheard of to experience a line at the ski lifts. La Vidamenette, the mountain opposite the chalet links directly to Sanaan and Gstaad. Other mountains nearby are also interlinked, all boasting amazing scenery and many mountain restaurants. Slightly further afield are the ski areas of Les Diabetes glacier, Lenk and Adleboden, and Villar, all are circa 30 mins drive away and add further variety to the ski region. If you are interested in visiting in summer; the hiking, biking (road and mountain), mountain lakes, and wellness facilities in the region are second to none. There are several excellent ski and snow-board schools available, and private instruction, and off-piste guides.
