Hiking holidays Alpine Panorama Trail Schwarzsee - Lake Geneva
Hiking: Alpine Panorama Trail
First highlight of this walk are the sparkling waters of lake “Schwarzsee”. This is an unspoilt and scarcely populated area – no wonder that tales and legends of giants and dragons take place in the surroundings of this lake. Your walk leads you through the wild scenery of the gorge of river Jaun towards the lovely village of Gruyères.- 7 Days / 6 Nights
- Self-guided tour
Arrival to Schwarzsee
Schwarzsee – Jaun
From charming Schwarzsee to Breccaschlund and into the jagged limestone landscape of the Greyerzer Alps, over the relatively low Euschelspass, carved out by glaciers, to Jaun, the only German-speaking village in the Gruyère region.
Jaun – Gruyères
A valley hike alongside the babbling Jaunbach crossing the language boundary to Charmey, following Lac de Montsalvens, with its many coves, to the dam and the spectacular Jaun-Schlucht gorge down to Broc and the famous Gruyère Castle. After a visit of the chocolate production in Maison Cailler you continue to the famous village of Gruyères.
Gruyères – Les Paccots
With the mighty Moléson in view and the town of Gruyère left behind, you climb to the middle cableway station at Plan-Francey. Then hike along the north-west flank of the Moléson and descend to the richly-forested pre-Alpine landscape of Les Paccots.
Les Paccots – Vevey
The hallmarks of Les Pléiades are a white carpet of narcissi in may and fantastic, all-year-round views of Lac Léman and the surrounding Alps. The steep ascent to Blonay can be eased by taking the cogwheel railway.
Departure or extension
