The valley of the zip lines

Description

Riding the zip lines from Charmey feels almost like flying. Experience something new and unique – especially in winter, when the snow-covered fir trees make for an extraordinary backdrop.
"The spectacular Charmey rope park in the Fribourg Alps is a fantastic playground for young and old alike, from 11 years of age. Gliding from tree to tree on a pulley does not require any previous experience. The local guides give instructions on how the harness is worn, how the safety carabiners are to be attached and which posture is optimal and also safest.
The starting point is the valley station at the end of Charmey village. From there, the cable car transports the adventurers to Vounetse at 1,600m above sea level in just a few minutes. From this great height, the breathtaking view of the Fribourg Alps extends down into the Val de Charmey and beyond to the summit of the Moléson, some 15km away. This tableau is also visible from numerous sections of the zip line. There are 13 such zip lines in total, some of which are over 300m long. To complete the entire course, it takes around two and a half hours. The last section ends above the cable car’s middle station. Depending on how hungry you get and the time of day, we would recommend a trip to Vounetse to enjoy the view and a refreshment on the sunny terrace. In addition to the zip lines, there are numerous other ways to get into the valley from Vounetse: by cable car, of course, but also on skis or snowshoes."
