Auberge de Salanfe
Photo: Markus Klauke, Michael Figgen

Berge, Spiegelbild im See, Murmeltiere, Steinböcke… was für ein Glück für alle Naturfreunde! Salanfe ist Etappenort zahlreicher Rundtouren und grosser Mehretappenwanderungen, damit ein veritables Wegkreuz im Gebirge, aber auch der ideale Ort für Fischer und für Mountainbikefreaks. Mehrere nahe gelegene Gipfel sind leicht zu erreichen und bieten ein grandioses Panorama auf die Schweizer und Französischen Alpen.
