Lessoc - Montbovon
Starting at the Lessoc well (1796), whose cupola was a gift of a cheese merchant from Lyon, the trail leads to Montbovon.
Parc naturel régional Gruyère Pays-d'Enhaut - Cited as early as 1255, Montbovon has long been a busy crossroads. Located along the Sarine, it is the junction of the roads of three worlds: the Gruyère, the Pays-d’Enhaut, and the Lake Geneva basin. This crossroads is also emphasized by the meeting of two railroads: Montreux Oberland Bernois (1903) and Transports Fribourgeois (1904), which brought modernity into these valleys.

Starting at the Lessoc well (1796), whose cupola was a gift of a cheese merchant from Lyon, the trail leads to Montbovon.
The trail leads from the village of Neirivue through fields and woods to the hamlet of Sciernes d'Albeuve and then descends again to Montbovon.
From Montbovon the trail ascends on the left side of the valley into a pretty little valley. This historical trail leads as far as the Pont du Pontet, one of the oldest bridges in the Canton of Freiburg (17th century).
This stage is the only one on the Grand Tour des Vanils to offer a magnificent glimpse of Lake Geneva (from the Col de Jaman) and along the slopes of the Cape au Moine.
