On the 1,289 meter high Mont Soleil you will find not only the numerous wind turbines but also an enormous photovoltaic system. To be precise, it is one of the largest solar power plants in Europe.

Beautiful area. With the construction of large wind and solar farms across Europe, these may seem trivial today. They are, however, power plants for experimental purposes, and the largest of this type in Switzerland. There are also explanatory panels and the possibility of taking guided tours. Ideal to do with the family.
