Probably one of the steepest climbs in the canton... So it's a must if you enjoy suffering on a steep climb, but if you prefer something more "rolling" it's not necessarily the best 😁 Otherwise the view over the lake is breathtaking and well worth the diversions, plus there's the Baroness'alpine restaurant to refresh you after the climb (and support the local economy)... read more

Probablement une des montée les plus raide du canton...
Alors c'est un must si vous appréciez souffrir dans une montée raide mais si vous préférez quelque chose de plus "roulant" c'est pas forcément la meilleure 😁
Sinon la vue sur le lac est imprenable et vaut le détour, en plus il y a le restaurant d'alpage de la baronne pour vous rafraîchir après la montée (et soutenir l'économie locale)
