Description

It's going to be sunny and warm this long weekend, perfect for a via ferrata adventure :)

Let's climb Le Moléson using one of the two via ferrate leading to the summit.
I plan to skip the funicular and hike up from Moléson-sur-Gruyères (T2, ca. 1 hr) to the via ferrata starting point.

More info about the VF, difficulty, & route here:

It's rated K4/K5, so not beginner-friendly as it has exposed and overhanging sections!

There's an entry fee of 4 CHF, it's possible to rent the gear at the spot, more info here:

We can stop for a drink at Plan-Francey after the VF..


I can offer seats in my car from Fribourg.
