About this property
Sunny chalet vacation apartment with a view of the Jaun valley in the west alps
The quiet apartment is located in a chalet on the southern slope, 100 m above the 1030 m high-altitude Jaun. There are 2 parking places available. The small village is nestled in a charming Valley of the Fribourg Alps between the Gruyère - and Bernese Oberland. Unspoilt by crowds it offers the image of a historical unspoilt mountain village. The Chalet is an ideal starting point for hikes and mountain tours in warm season for the nature lover. Fresh mountain air, the sight of the pastures and mountains with varied alpine flora will throw away all your worries. Low noise of the remarkable Jaun falls protects your sleep. In the Cantorama, a little old church, you can enjoy classical and popular musical performances. Close to Jaun by car (approx. 8 km) you will find tennis courts and Spa. Free bathing can be done at Lake of Gruyère (ca. 15km from the chalet). For winter sports, all usual options are on-site and nearby.
Restaurants: Hotel/Restaurant Wasserfall in the village on foot in approximately 10 minutes away. Other drive restaurants after 10 minutes can be reached (Jaunpass, Im Fang, Charmey)
Walks: You can start walks and hiking tours directly from the Chalet. The hike routes are marked with signs, a map is not really necessary. Mountain climbs are possible up to 2100 meters.
Very popular is hiking to the Schwarzsee (one way ca. two and a half hours), to Chalet du Soldat (one way ca. two hours) or to the nearest city Charmey (one way ca. one and a half hours) but also other hikes are highly recommended.
New thermal baths are in Charmey (8 km).
A very modern 4-seater chairlift exists in Jaun since 2011. It opens up various hiking trails in the summer and brings you to beautiful views. It's also used for skiing in the winter (along with 3 other T-bar lifts) and tobogganing.
