Moléson is a ski resort in the Fribourg Pre-Alps. Its ski area, rising to 2,002 m, overlooks the whole Gruyère region and offers an extraordinary view. The village lies at the foot of the mountain of the same name; a funicular and a panoramic cable car take you to the summit.

The Moléson ski area covers one side of the Moléson massif, from the village at 1,100 m up to the summit at 2,002 m. It offers 30 km of downhill slopes: 7% green, 57% blue, 13% red and 23% black. Instructors from the Swiss Ski and Snowboard School give lessons in small groups for children aged 5 to 15, as well as dualski sessions for people with reduced mobility. Adults can take private lessons. A great 4 km toboggan run awaits sliding fans: take the funicular up to Plan-Francey at 1,520 m, where the run starts, and race down to Moléson-Village at 1,100 m. The area also has a 300 m long, 40 m wide snowpark with handrails, a fun box and all sorts of features, to the delight of snowboarders.

Hikers can discover the fabulous landscapes of the Gruyère region on two marked routes: the 3 km Moléson-Village – Le Poyet circuit and the 5 km Moléson-Village – Les Clés – La Chia route. Another walking route starts 500 m before the entrance to the resort and leads you to La Vudalla, at the Le Poyet chalet. Check the trail's opening hours beforehand. Finally, note that the entire Moléson area is open for night skiing until 10.30 pm every Thursday!

If you are in Moléson over the Christmas holidays, consider booking your New Year's Eve at the Hôtel Plan-Francey restaurant! A festive dinner with live music is held to celebrate the New Year in a lovely friendly atmosphere! Several restaurants in the resort let you discover the local specialities: if you like cheese, a stop at La Pierre à Catillon restaurant is a must! At Le Sommet restaurant, located, as the name suggests, at the summit of Moléson, you can enjoy a proper Gruyère fondue while taking in a sumptuous view of the Pre-Alps!

The resort also has apartments and chalets for rent, as well as some group accommodation. All you have to do is choose the option that best suits your tastes and needs, so you can make the most of this friendly family resort.
