Intro
The boundary between cantons Fribourg and Vaud is crossed over a ridge with sweeping views as far as Curtilles on both sides. A riverside path follows the Broye. The parish church in Moudon with its valuable choir stalls is well worth a visit.
Description
Romont is the starting point for this stage: a mediaeval town where glass has pride of place in many places, including the collegiate and other churches, in the streets and, of course, at the Swiss Museum of Stained Glass and Glass Art. It presents a dazzling display of glass arts, with a large collection of stained glass and reverse glass painting.
As you leave Romont, you will quickly cross the border between the cantons of Fribourg and Vaud via a path along the ridge, with a delightful clear view on both sides. After the descent to Curtilles, the route follows a path along the Broye. The parish church in Moudon and its precious stalls are well worth the visit.
An enjoyable tour includes the careful planning of the same. Please inform yourself in advance at the local information center about the route and weather conditions. Depending on the season and weather conditions, this route may be blocked or interrupted
