Ile d'Ogoz

Reviewed By Bandit-One - Lucerne, Switzerland

The Lake Gruyere has some nice spots. And one of the nicest and most famous is the area around the Ile (Island) d'Ogoz. It really gets interesting when you catch this place when the waters are low. Then you got the chance to walk to the island, with its ruins and chapel. But also the nearby beach and the walks around the lake are interesting. It's a nice area to explore by foot, taking a break, having a picknic etc. There is (limited) free parking just after you pass under the highway, close to the farm. There is also a boat service to the island. We - and our dog - enjoyed the walks and the beach here. Sadly the island was closed due to Covid-19 at that time, but it's been a nice afternoon anyways, with nice walks and views.

Les Gorges De La Jogne

Reviewed By 580quentinn - Amport, United Kingdom

What a wonderful walk we had down the Gorges. Just after visiting the chocolate factory this made for an active 3 hours as we walked the length of the gorge. In the summer it is cool and there are some stunning cliffs to imagine climbing ( you can even see the climbing bolts on some of the rock faces) At the end of the leg out you should climb up from the hydroelectric dam to Chez Boudji for the best macaroni in the region. This walk is the sort of walk you can enjoy in every season to see how the scenery changes. No 1 recommendation in the region.

Reviewed By WeakKneeTraveler - Singapore, Singapore

Tried the waffles spread with chocolate and it was really delicious. It was a great choice to have this as a after lunch dessert.
