This hike is a beautiful one, since the view gets better with every step. We recommend you to start at Moléson-Village, which is easily accessible with public transports. From there you can take the funicular railway or hike to "Plan Francey", while we really suggest you to do the latter one. From there, you hike through alpine meadows while the path leads further up and the final view starts to appear slowly. Don't forget to take a moment from time to time to look around. When you have reached the peak, you should see the Prealps in a manner like nowhere else, see lake Murtensee, Lac de Neuchâtel, Lac Léman and the mountain chains of the Jura massive. For the way down we suggest you to descend on the Eastern side, but if you're too tired, you can also take the cable car.
