Highlight • Structure

If you don't know the delicious Gruyère, a hard cheese made in Gruyère, you should definitely try it here. The cheese is a MUST for every cheese fondue.😋

The Col de Lade is a pass in the Friborg Alps located in the shadow of the summit of the Dent du Broc, near the town of Gruyères, famous for its cheese and its medieval castle. At the pass you can enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding valleys and peaks. The best time to visit is from June to October, when the weather is mild and the flowers are in bloom.

The Wobbly Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Translated it means the shaky bridge, although this name must come from days gone by, because now the bridge is an extremely stable structure. It bridges the La Sarine, a 126 km long river that crosses the canton of Friborg lengthways.
A special feature, in my opinion, is the meager equipment with a small window on each side. This makes the passage quite somber.

Pont-qui-Branle Covered Wooden Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

This pretty wooden bridge takes you over the La Sarine river. As you cross, you have a beautiful view of the flowing water and the surrounding mountains.

The Notre-Dame des Marches chapel is a beautiful chapel and place of pilgrimage near Broc. Built in 1705 by three brothers, the chapel houses a Gothic statue of the Virgin Mary said to have performed miraculous healings.

On the trail in the Gruyère district, a 30-minute drive from home.

Today, I took advantage of the beautiful weather and drove to Broc to climb the Dent de Broc. You might not know Broc if you're not from the canton of Fribourg. But many people are familiar with one product from Broc. It's home to Maison Cailler, the chocolate …

Driving past this peak on the weekend, I knew I had to get it on an after-work trip. Especially since there are direct train connections from Bern 🙂 T4
