La Tête de l'Herbette is a summit located on the northern edge of Vanil Noir, a mountain in the Swiss Alps. It offers a picturesque hike through the Vallon des Morteys, a narrow valley with a stream and waterfall. Your reward at the summit is a panoramic view of the Friborg and Vaudois Alps, as well as the possibility of reaching Vanil Noir higher up via a difficult ridge crossing. La Tête de l'Herbette is an ideal destination for a day trip or loop hike in the Morteys region.

The ascent of Tête de l'Herbette is considered moderately difficult and requires technical skills and equipment. The climb has rocky and exposed sections that are secured by steel cables and chains, but also unsecured sections that are steep and precarious. Climbing should not be attempted in wet or snowy weather, as it can become very slippery and dangerous. La Tête de l'Herbette is a challenging but rewarding peak for adventurous hikers looking for thrills.
