オロンの絶景の山頂・トップ16

Restaurant closed...for several months.

If you're looking for a scenic and easy hike in the Friborg Alps, you should visit Les Alpettes, a grassy peak that offers 360° views of the surrounding mountains and lakes. You can start from the village of Semsales and follow the yellow signs to the chapel of Notre-Dame du Niremont, then continue to the large chalet des Alpettes, where you can admire the traditional wooden roof. From there, you can climb to the cross and the highest point of the Alpettes (1413 m), and enjoy the panorama of the Moléson, the Teysachaux and the Niremont.

Small lake in a magical and bucolic landscape. You can go around it, and push further to face the surrounding peaks!

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.

Hiking trail leads over alpine meadows

Saint-Saphorin is a charming little village located on the shores of Lake Geneva, in the Lavaux in Switzerland. The architecture of the center is quite picturesque, with stone vaults and houses with colorful facades. The best is to stop at the poplar square and observe the buildings around you. The village is known for its terraced vineyards, which produce some of the best wines in the region, made from Chasselas, the national grape.

Magnificent views of the Alps and the Lake Geneva basin. You can access the summit tower to benefit from a clear panorama for 5 CHF.

The place offers a magical view over the Valais Alps to the south and Lake Geneva to the west. Then, the planetarium built with the Swiss astronaut Claude Nicollier is very informative. It allows us to represent in three dimensions the immensity of our galaxy and the solar system. An educational place par excellence and reachable by public transport with the cogwheel train.
