'''Bretaye''' (or ''Col de Bretaye'') is a high [[mountain pass]] of the [[Swiss Alps]], located above [[Villars-sur-Ollon]] in the canton of [[Vaud]]. The pass (1,806 m) is connected to Villars by the [[Bex–Villars–Bretaye railway]], which is the second highest railway of the canton after the [[Montreux–Glion–Rochers-de-Naye railway line]]. In winter, Bretaye is the main ski area of Villars and a chairlift leads to the summit of [[Le Chamossaire]] (2,112 m).
