Beautiful viewpoint at the highest point of the mountain. During the walk there you will not encounter any water fountains. It is important to bring enough water with you. There is a restaurant on the mountain if necessary.

Since a fatal accident due to falling rocks, the path has been closed and prohibited. https://www.montreux.ch/news/vue/article/fermeture-des-gorges-du-chauderon

Very popular summit as it is easily accessible via the funicular to Plan-Francey and from there by cable car to Moléson. From the mountain station, the summit is only about 200m away with a good 30 meters in altitude. Most of the time there are many people on the mountain. A little further away from the mountain station you have peace and quiet again.

I confirm, access to the trail is closed until ..... given the inventory, reopening does not seem to be a priority.
