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:
https://www.moleson.ch/en/via-ferrata/
We can stop for a drink at Plan-Francey after the VF..
I can offer seats in my car from Fribourg.
What you need to bring:
-via ferrata gear (helmet, harness, set)
-proper mountains footwear
-enough water and snacks for the day (it's going to be warm!)
-sunscreen and protection
-good vibes :)
Meeting point: parking lot at the funicular station
