Sex Rouge, Mountain summit in Ormont-Dessus, Switzerland.
Sex Rouge is a mountain summit in the Bernese Alps that rises to 2,971 meters above sea level. The peak features steep rock faces on its western side and overlooks the Tsanfleuron Glacier and surrounding alpine terrain.
The first cable car reached this summit in 1964, creating vehicle access to the peak for the first time. This infrastructure project opened the mountain to visitors who could not reach it by foot alone.
The mountain serves as a central point for winter sports from October to May, with multiple ski lifts operating on the adjacent Tsanfleuron Glacier.
Multiple cable car systems from different locations bring you near the top, requiring just a short walk to reach the peak. Plan your visit for summer months when all routes are typically open and conditions are most stable.
A suspension bridge connects this peak to a neighboring mountain, creating an unusual crossing between two summits high above the ground. This engineering feat was completed in 2014 and offers an unforgettable experience for those who dare to use it.
