Col du Pillon

Pillon Pass, at an altitude of 1546m, is a mountain pass connecting Ormont-Dessus (Les Diablerets, Vaud Alps) to Gsteig, above Gstaad (Saanenland).

It is the starting point of the cable car of the Tsanfleuron Glacier (Les Diablerets Glacier), which climbs up to Scex Rouge, 2971m above the sea.

The pass, which is open all year round except in extreme weather conditions, is located a few hundred metres from the Canton of Berne, and thus from the linguistic border between French and German-speaking Switzerland.
