If you love nature and want to discover the rich diversity of pre-Alpine flora, the Moléson botanical trail is a must. This thematic trail starts from Plan-Francey, accessible by the Moléson-Village funicular, and winds along the eastern slope of the Moléson, passing by the Gros-Moléson chalet and the Albeuve valley. Along the way, you will be able to identify more than 200 plants thanks to labels placed by a botanical association. It offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains. An ideal way to combine your love of botany with that of outdoor activities.
