Fribourg Pre-Alps Trail: Chalet du Soldat – Château d’Oex
Explore regional route 78, the "Fribourg Pre-Alps Trail". Split into five stages, the “Fribourg Pre-AlpsTrail” takes you from the town of Fribourg to Schwarzsee, then through La Gruyère, below the Gastlosen mountain chain to the Pays-d'Enhaut, arriving at the Château d'Oex, the Eldorado of hot-air ballooning.
This 5th and final stage of the trail offers an array of pre-Alpine landscapes that takes you through the Petit Mont and Gros Mont valleys to the Pays d’En Haut. To get the most out of this long stage, an overnight stay is suggested at the Marindes mountain hut, in the heart of the Les Morteys valley and the land of the golden eagle.
