Château-d'Œx is a municipality in the canton of Vaud in Switzerland. It is the capital of the district of Pays-d'Enhaut.
At the International Hot-air Balloon Festival in Château-d’Oex , pilots from all over the world gather to create bright spots of colour in the blue sky with their amazing vehicles.
The village in the Vaudois Alps is home to one of Switzerland’s most colourful events, the International Hot-air Balloon Festival, but for its opening weekend, the festival and its hot-air balloons literally had trouble getting off the ground.
