Schwyberg is the area’s emblematic mountain – you can’t miss it. A technically easy four-and-a-half-hour itinerary starts at Plaffeien (849m) and heads for the Alp Grosser Schwyberg chalet (1645m).

Here, you can enjoy panoramic views of the 13 Swiss cantons. Once you’ve had your fill of scenery, it’s time to savour the homemade röstis and delicious Flammkuchen served at this Alpine restaurant. Return to the plains via Schwarzee then along the river Sense on the pathways of Fribourg’s Pre-Alps. Those wishing to spend the night here can head for the Schwyberg mountain range the following day, towards La Berra and Cousimbert.
