Chalet Balthus

In the footsteps of Balthus

Rossinière, a village where time slows down

Nestled in the heart of the Pays-d’Enhaut, Rossinière captivates at first glance. Its century-old chalets, including the famous Grand Chalet, tell the story of a village where art, nature, and traditions live in harmony. Here, peaceful streets invite you to stroll, Lake Vernex reflects the surrounding peaks, and pastures open onto the bright landscapes typical of the region.
Rossinière is also a land of inspiration, once dear to the painter Balthus, and a place where authentic hospitality is part of the village’s DNA. Whether for a gentle stroll, a rejuvenating stay, or a cultural detour, Rossinière offers a simple and precious break, in tune with the rhythm of the mountains.

Le Royaume des Chats

Cats, poetry, and heritage throughout the village

In Rossinière, the poetic world of Balthus returns in summer 2026 with the Kingdom of Cats. This artistic summer stroll will guide visitors in the footsteps of the painter, who was deeply attached to the village and its felines. Along the narrow streets, on the facades and near the chalets, original works depicting felines of all kinds will invite everyone to observe, smile, and marvel.

Gentle, playful, and accessible to all, this walk offers an original way to discover Rossinière. Between heritage, artistic nods, and a relaxed atmosphere, the Kingdom of Cats brings an extra touch of magic to the discovery of the Pays-d’Enhaut.
