There was some fantastic autumn weather over the weekend so we went up to the col des Mosses for a walk. The route was fairly simple, to leave La Lécherette and walk up on side of the pass before crossing at Les Mosses and climbing up to the top of the La Lécherette ski station and descending to the village.

Leysin is an access point to a small range of gray limestone mountains where glacial erosion has created some cirques. The plan was to get a boost from Leysin at 1315m to the Berneuse at 2035m and take a tour round the “Tours”, the “Tours” being Tour d’Aï, Tour de Mayen and an ascent of the Tour de Famelon before dropping to Pierre du Moëllé and returning to Leysin.

The plan today was to leave from the train station at Zweisimmen and ride the lift up to Rinderberg, from there to climb the remaining distance to the summit of the the Rinderberg and head for Lenk. From the Rinderberg I headed for the Parwengesattel passing the top of the new ski lift from above St Stephan. After the Parwengesattel I leave the lift system of the Gstaad area behind and head into the space between Gstaad and Lenk.

It didn’t look that nice a day when we left this morning but the cloud cleared quite nicely and it turned into a great day.
We actually parked at Saanen but it’s all part of the same ski area and you park right next to the 4-man chair lift.
I’d actually never been on the very top lift at Rougemont, it’s just a short cable-car to the summit of La Videmanette, normally we just take the main cable car from the car park but from the top of the new Chalberhöni the slope looked too good to miss.
There’s some more photo’s in the gallery.
