Neirivue-Moleso 2027

If you’re looking for a race that literally takes you to the top, the Neirivue-Moléson is made for you: a true mountain race in the heart of La Gruyère, that corner of Switzerland where you can breathe in the fresh air 🏔️.

The idea is as simple as it is exhilarating: you set off from the village of Neirivue, resting quietly in the valley, and you climb through alpine pastures and wild nature all the way up to the summit of Moléson, at 2,000 meters above sea level. In concrete terms, that means 10.6 km and 1,290 m of ascent, with the legendary Combe as the grand finale: that last ramp that makes your legs burn, but gives you a finish you’ll still be talking about at Christmas 💪. And good news: once you cross the line, the descent is on the house by cable car, so you keep all your energy for what comes next. Since it’s also a real village celebration, the youngest have their own race and an adapted event is planned: the whole crew can lace up their sneakers.

After the effort, head back down to savor the region: make a beeline for the medieval town of Gruyères and its hilltop castle to stroll through the cobblestone streets, then continue on to La Maison du Gruyère—here, the only thing allowed to have holes is the cheese, not your fitness 🧀. For the most indulgent, the Maison Cailler in Broc turns recovery into a 100% melt-in-your-mouth break 🍫.

And if you’re coming as a couple or with the whole crew, end the day at the Bains de la Gruyère in Charmey: nothing beats a dip in hot water to finally get your legs to forgive you for the Combe ♨️.
