Mountain Cart in Villars-sur-Ollon : The ultimate summer thrill
The Mountain Cart is a downhill activity in Villars during the summer season. This gliding sport, halfway between a go-kart and a mountain bike, combines adrenaline, alpine scenery, and the pleasure of speed. This three-wheeled vehicle, equipped with a low center of gravity, a high-performance braking system, and wide tires, allows riders to travel along mountain paths. Relatively lightweight and easy to handle, it adapts to almost all types of terrain and offers a ride that is both fun and full of thrills on the Mountain Cart track in Villars.
The Villars Mountain Cart track is accessible via the Roc d’Orsay cable car and stretches over 5 km with a vertical drop of 700 m.
Mountain Cart Villars – Fun Downhill Ride from Roc d’Orsay to Villars
The Mountain Cart in Villars is one of the most fun and accessible downhill experiences in the Villars-Gryon-Les Diablerets area. Starting from Roc d’Orsay, this unique activity offers a playful descent all the way down to Villars via the scenic Bouquetin trail.
Accessible via the Roc d’Orsay gondola, the adventure begins at altitude with immediate panoramic views over the Vaud Alps, including the Dents du Midi and even Mont Blanc on clear days. From there, riders set off on a wide alpine track, navigating the descent on a stable three-wheeled cart equipped with powerful brakes.
The route follows the Bouquetin trail, alternating between open alpine meadows, flowing mountain paths and shaded forest sections. This variety keeps the ride engaging from start to finish, combining smooth curves with natural terrain for a dynamic yet reassuring experience.
Designed for a wide audience, the Mountain Cart is easy to handle and requires no prior biking experience. It’s ideal for families, groups or anyone looking for a fun and slightly adrenaline-filled activity without the technical demands of downhill mountain biking.
As part of the growing summer offer in Villars-Gryon-Les Diablerets, the Mountain Cart has quickly established itself as a must-do activity for those wanting to experience the mountains in a different — and very fun — way.
