FFVL take-off at Très-le-mont

Highlight • Other

On the western slope of Très le Mont there are two places from which paragliders occasionally take off. Even though there are no flights at the moment, you can get a nice view from here.

Hamlet with hikers' car park and excursion restaurant. An interesting hiking trail to Mt Fourchat starts from here.

Col du Feu

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Here you are at 1,117 meters above sea level. After an ascent of six kilometers coming from Orcier (north slope) and three kilometers from Lullin (south slope), you deserve a little break.

The bar-restaurant located just a stone's throw away offers simple and rich cuisine. Enough to regain some strength for the rest of your day.

Très-le-Mont Wood Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

This small wooden chapel serves as a stopover on the Mont Forchat pilgrimage route. It houses a small altar dedicated to François de Sales, whose life is told in several episodes.
The square gives the impression that masses are sometimes celebrated there.

Mount Forchat

Highlight • Summit

A lookout point with almost panoramic views and there is plenty to see in all directions (on a clear day).
An orientation sign allows you to better find your way around the environment. With a bit of luck you can watch the gliders that took off from Ramble with the winch from here.

Encrenaz Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Col de l'Encrenaz is 1429m high, which is 120m lower than the Mont Forchat, which can be easily reached from here. The path is steep, but not so steep that you can't walk any more.
