Les Mosses Hotels and Accommodation

Not far from Switzerland's French border, in the hills of the canton of Vaud, lies the small ski village of Les Mosses. This small local resort is a favorite skiing destination for knowledgeable locals, with the skiable mountain known as the Col des Mosses its main attraction. It is part of a complex of ski resorts stretching from Leysin, to Lecherette and Glacier 3000, which together comprise over 100 kilometers of ski runs (and countless more ungroomed regions of open mountain). Other natural wonders include the Lac Lioson, known as the "pearl of the mountain lakes, as well as the Lac de l'Hongrin, which offers great views and ample opportunities for fishing. For indoor entertainment, of a more contemplative nature, there's the Musee des Ormonts.
