Running

The Passage à l'île d'Ogoz is a natural causeway that connects the continent to the island of Ogoz in Lake Gruyère. The island is home to the ruins of two medieval castles and a restored chapel, which you can discover after crossing the lake on foot. The passage is only accessible when the water level is below 668 m. So check the conditions before leaving.

Hiking

The island can be reached in spring. The reservoir is drained to collect the melting snow. This creates a connection between the island and the shore of Lac de Gruyere.
