About the hike
Join us on May 3rd for a stunning alpine hike above Montreux, starting from Caux Train Station and climbing up to Rochers de Naye 🌄
We’ll hike through forests and alpine meadows with ever-expanding views over Lake Geneva — a steady climb, but absolutely worth it. At the top, a breathtaking panorama awaits.
We’ll then continue along a scenic ridge to Buvette de Jaman for a relaxed break or picnic before looping back down to Caux.
A must-do hike with incredible views and classic Swiss alpine vibes ✨
Please note
Poles are good to have, good hiking shoes, rain jacket in backpack. The hike will be between 10 – 12 kms – as we can make it longer if we walk back to Caux, or take train from Jaman. We will decide on the hike.

How to register
To register, please fill out the form below. Please note that your registration is binding. Places are limited to a maximum of 10 – “first come, first served” 😉 After registering, you will receive confirmation and a message from the organizer shortly.
IMPORTANT: If you are unexpectedly unable to attend, please let us know by February April 28th at latest so that we can give others on the waiting list the opportunity to join. Participants who cancel at short notice will be excluded from future events. We strive to offer our events free of charge and invest a lot of our free time in these events (we all work on a voluntary basis), but unfortunately we have experienced many no-shows/no-replies or last-minute cancellations in recent years, which is demotivating for the organizers. Therefore, we had to establish this rule.
Disclaimer / Please note
The hike is free of charge, but our organizers always appreciate a small tip via TWINT for their volunteer work (organizing and conducting a hike takes about three days of effort). The number will be announced after registration, and you will be invited to join a WhatsApp group. Food and drinks are not included in our hikes and must be brought along by participants. Participation is at your own risk and responsibility, as we are only a volunteer community of friends and not an official tour operator. You will therefore be asked to confirm a disclaimer below. You can find more information in our FAQ.
