Located on the south face of the Gibloux, our snowshoe trails offer an idyllic setting in winter. Between peat bogs, pastures and forests, you might think you are in Lapland. The view of the Moléson and the Pre-Alps is there to remind us that we are in Gruyère. Various starting points are accessible by car from Riaz, Marsens, Sorens (TPF Bus) and Maules.
Between clearings and forests, take advantage of the Green Trail to discover the wild nature of the Riaz Hills.
From the Chalet-Neuf buvette, turn left and walk along the clearing that appears in front of you. Cross the edge of the forest, walk about ten metres up to the crossing and then follow the signpost B to the left. Stroll between the snow-covered fir trees to reach point B called "Prâ Boû". After a good climb over 200m, you will already be at point H called "Joux de Pra Filieux". Walk the 600m in the heart of a preserved forest to reach the point G called "Joux de Pra Filieux". Go to your left following the A signpost, and walk a few more minutes in the forest. Once you reach the edge, you will discover the cross-country ski trails that occupy the clearing. You can see Chalet-Neuf in the distance, which marks the end of your hike. Enjoy these last moments by admiring this winter landscape while walking along the clearing.
