La Saison d'Alpage

Discover the traditions that make the Gruyère region tick!

In collaboration with the Parc Naturel Régional Gruyère Pays-d’Enhaut, a film and 6 play areas have been set up at the summit of Vounetz on the theme of the mountain pasture season. The activities are available free of charge and accessible to all.

The games allow you to learn more about various subjects such as the milk route, the living traditions of the Gruyère, the tavillonnage, and much more!

Thanks to several didactic panels, you will learn more about life on the mountain pasture. A fun digital game will allow you to discover, through a small quiz, if you would make a good herdsman!

So, are you ready to discover the secrets of the herdsmen of our beautiful Gruyère?
