Teysachaux

Teysachaux is a summit reaching 1909 meters with sedimentary rock formations and multiple hiking paths along its steep slopes. The paths are marked and allow exploration of different elevations and mountain conditions.

The name originates from local dialect and refers to the jagged limestone peaks that formed millions of years ago. The mountain has been part of daily life for local communities throughout history.

Local herders use traditional mountain pastures surrounding the mountain to produce regional cheese varieties following methods passed down through generations. These practices shape how the landscape looks and changes with the seasons.

The circular trail starts at Les Rosalys with marked paths, but requires proper mountain gear and weather monitoring during the climb. Plan sufficient time and bring water and protective equipment, as conditions can change quickly.

From this summit, hikers can see both Lake Geneva waters and the Veveyse basin while watching native wildlife in their natural habitat. This view combines several landscape levels in one broad visual panorama.
