Chalet La Taupiniere — Hotel in Gruyères

This is a great house in a lovely village. We spent a week here in late August and had a lovely time. The house is well equipped and has good views of the mountains. And the benefit of an indoor heated pool - which our children loved. The village of Moleson has lots of activities that are available in the summer.

We are looking forward to...

Hikes start right at the door, ranging from relaxed to challenging. Or just take the cable car to the peak of...
