The Tour de Famelon is a rocky peak, located north of Leysin, which offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains, such as the Tour d'Aï, the Tour de Mayen and the Dents du Midi. To reach the summit you will have to cross a spectacular plateau of limestone formations called lapiaz, where you will have to be careful and follow the signs. You will also come across a small lake, Lake Segray, where you can take a break and admire the landscape. The final ascent is secured by a chain, which will help you get over the final steep section. Once at the top, you will be rewarded with a 360° panorama of the Alps and the valleys below. The Tour de Famelon is a hike that will test your skills and awaken your senses.
