Les Diablerets ("Sommet des Diablerets", "Summit of les Diablerets") is a mountain in the Swiss Alps, best known for the nearby ski resort of "Les Diablerets". It is situated in the French-speaking part of Switzerland, in the easternmost area of the Canton of Vaud.

"Les Diablerets" is commonly used as the name of the massif, which consist of several summits other than "Sommet des Diablerets":
*Oldenhorn
*Tête Ronde
*Scex Rouge
*Tour St. Martin (Quille du Diable)
*Culan

There are some glaciers on Les Diablerets, the small "Glacier des Diablerets" on the summit and the much larger "Glacier de Tsanfleuron" mostly known as Glacier 3000, due to tourist facilities.The Tsanfleuron Glacier can be accessed easily via the Scex Rouge by an aerial tramway from the Col du Pillon.

Tourism

The resort has a ski school, hotels and a small town centre. Tourists staying at the nearby resort do not normally ski on Les Diablerets much, though there are runs there. The two nearby mountains, Isenau and Meilleret serve the main ski runs, as well as a 13km run down Diablerets.
