Maison Cailler<\/strong> It’s one of those chilly days when the low sky makes you want to stay under the comforter. The town is quiet. The children are at school, the watchmakers at their workbenches. Why not take refuge in the Mus\u00e9e International d’Horlogerie? Over 4,500 objects, including 2,700 watches and 700 wall clocks, invite you to delve into the history of timekeeping. A fascinating experience! You’ll almost forget the rest of the program… <\/p>\n

Gruy\u00e8res<\/strong> After a gentle start, it’s time to add a little salt to your day. No matter what the season or diet, you can’t travel to Gruy\u00e8res without sampling its legendary fondue. A few steps through the authentic streets of the medieval village of Gruy\u00e8res will inevitably lead you to one of its many restaurants. If you’ve got a strong stomach, you’ll want to finish off with a famous meringue accompanied by double cream. <\/p>\n

Ch\u00e2teau de Gruy\u00e8res<\/strong> In what was once the main residence of one of Western Switzerland’s most important noble families in the Middle Ages, history takes on a fairytale air. Built in the 13th century as the home of the Counts of Gruy\u00e8re, the castle’s commanding position, with its beautiful views over the surrounding countryside, has preserved intact the imprint of the past. Stroll through the formal gardens, admire the Romantic period apartments, dream of chivalrous duels in the knights’ hall… Behind the thick ramparts, wall decorations, battle spoils and Romantic paintings take you back in time for the pleasure of the whole family. <\/p>\n

Les Bains de la Gruy\u00e8re<\/strong> How about a little height? Situated at an altitude of 900m, the village of Charmey offers much more than a majestic panorama of the surrounding countryside. A little closer to (seventh) heaven, we dive with delight into Les Bains de la Gruy\u00e8re. Three vast pools of mineral water heated to 34\u00b0C with bubbling sofas, jets and water jets promise optimum relaxation. Relaxation can be continued in one of the three saunas or in the oriental area, featuring a hammam and Turkish baths. <\/p>\n

Hotel Cailler<\/strong> The 4-star hotel in Charmey is the perfect place to extend your sense of well-being, just a stone’s throw from the spa. In this haven of peace with 63 rooms, junior suites, suites and apartments, authentic charm and refined comfort are the order of the day. For gourmets, head for the gourmet restaurant Quatre Saisons, rated Gault & Millau. For gourmets, the Bistro offers a fine menu of regional specialties. <\/p>\n

The Mol\u00e9son<\/strong> After a gentle wake-up call, the day promises to be ideal for discovering the Mol\u00e9son. Perched at an altitude of 2002m, this summit offers a 360-degree panorama of the Lake Geneva region, the peaks of the Bernese Oberland, the Mont Blanc chain and the 3 lakes region. The summit is easily reached by funicular and cable car. On the way up or down, stop off at one of the alpine cheese dairies. Nestled in an alpine pasture in Mol\u00e9son-sur-Gruy\u00e8res, an old 17th-century chalet with a shingled roof opens its doors to visitors. Wood-fired cauldrons, cheese-pressing, cheese-salting… Each step reveals a part of the age-old secrets of Gruy\u00e8re cheese. The geographical proximity of Gruy\u00e8re in no way hints at the power of the feeling that dominates on leaving: that of having escaped, far, far away… <\/p>\n
