Experience the lofty heights yourself and look down onto the Alpine peaks high above Château-d'Oex. On this vacation professional SkyEvent pilots are available to take you on a hot air balloon flight.

Over the years Château-d'Oex has become an important hot air ballooning site thanks to the exceptional micro-climate of the Pays-d'Enhaut Valley. All year round, as long as the weather conditions are favourable, scores of people are whisked away by the wind every day in complete safety on board one of Château-d'Oex's famous hot air balloons. Just a few minutes into the flight, passengers can enjoy a 360-degree panorama, and are often able to admire the Alps in all their glory from Mont Blanc to l'Eiger, via the Grand Combin and the Matterhorn, Jura and the area around Lake Geneva.
