All hikes in Gruyère Pays-d'Enhaut Regional Nature Park

From the Grand Chalet de Rossinière to the Auberge de la Croix de Fer in Allières, this walk through forests and the alpine pastures that ultimately produce cheese offers a panoramic view over the surround-ing peaks: the Dent de Corjon, the Vanils and the Gummfluh.

A different way of climbing the summit of the Moléson, this walk passes through the mountain pastures typical of Fribourg’s cultural landscape. It offers a fine opportunity for walkers to admire the centuries-old work of the «armaillis».

From Rossinière to the Col de Solomon, via a bridge dating back to 1650. After the descent into the Hongrin Valley, the climb up the Col de Chaude with superb views of Lake Geneva awaits. From there, the route continues uphill to the intermediate station of the Rochers de Naye cog railway.

In a gentle descent, the route follows the wild stream La Torneresse for several kilometres until the valley narrows at the Gorges du Pissot. This is where the scenery unfolds to reveal views of the wide valley of the Pays-d’Enhaut. After Châteaux-d’Oex, the trail descends to Rossinière.

Walk on the heights of Montreux Riviera - enjoy meadows covered with narcissi in May, forests, and views across Lake Geneva and the Alps. Start and finish at Les Avants, a Belle Époque-style village that was one of the first ski resorts created in Switzerland.

Forests and pastures to the summit of the Gibloux. Easily reached telecommunications tower with 360 degrees panoramic view. On along the Kapellenpfad trail through richly varied meadow and cultivated landscapes. Impressive rock faces on the Saane river. The section can easily be shortened.

From the Pays de Gruyère to the Three Lakes Region and through the canton's principle tourist resorts of Gruyères, Fribourg and Murten. Discover typical Swiss landscapes: Alpine foothills and the agricultural, rolling hills of the Mittelland.

From Rougemont, which was once the priory of Cluny, the trial goes over the Kirchenhügel from Château-d'Oex to the Grand Chalet of Rossinière. It goes between the rushing Saane and landscape steeped in history, moulded by the mountain farmers.

With the mighty Moléson in view and the town of Gruyère left behind, you climb to the middle cableway station at Plan Francey. Then hike along the north-west flank of the Moléson and descend to the richly-forested pre-Alpine landscape of Les Paccots.

From Canton Fribourg into Canton Vaud, from Châlet du Régiment to Château-d’Oex. In the «balloonists’ Mecca» everything focuses on the hot-air balloon. «Espace Ballon» with activities for all ages as well as permanent and temporary exhibitions.

A magnificent forest track borders the lake on hilly ground from Corbières to Botterens. It is quiet on the way back, with magnificent views of the Moléson, the Dent de Broc and the Gibloux. Chocolate treats in Maison Cailler and an opportunity to swim in Les Laviaux.

Enjoyable ascent on unsurfaced and surfaced paths to Châlet du Régiment. The landscape is dominated by the jagged Gastlosen chain; colourful flower meadows and lovely views back to the Euschelspass and to the surrounding mountains are a constant surprise.

Gruyères Castle, once belonging to the counts, presides over the medieval town of Gruyères from the top of the hill. The small historic town lies 100 m above the Saane, and that is right where this hike is headed.

Fairy tales and legends accompany the walker as far as Vuippens. Beach in Gumefens, optional visit to Ogoz Island. Forest trail looking down on the lake as far as Rossens, hilly paths and numerous timber features surmounting natural obstacles.

A hike downstream in the heart of La Gruyère, which through openings in the undergrowth offers unrivalled views of the Alpine foothills and creeks filled with turquoise water! It's a real pleasure to discover the flora and fauna and heritage of La Gruyère.
