Tips from the Community

Switzerland Tourism
April 29, 2026, Restaurant Le Grand Pont

The Le Grand Pont restaurant combines an exceptional panorama, creative seasonal cuisine, attractive weekly specials, and a varied ambiance. It is located at the end of the Zähringerbrücke and offers a spectacular view of Freiburg's old town. The recently renovated restaurant blends historical charm and modernity in a warm and open atmosphere designed to foster encounters and exchange. The brasserie welcomes guests in a convivial and dynamic atmosphere for a coffee, lunch, or dinner. The Cellier is a more exclusive gastronomic area offering 4- to 7-course menus made with local and seasonal products for a refined culinary experience. The deliberately concise menu changes weekly, depending on deliveries and the chef's inspiration. Whether for a gourmet break, a business lunch, or an evening with friends – everyone will find something to their taste here, including lovers of vegetarian or vegan cuisine. Cultural events provide variety throughout the year: concerts, DJ sets on the terrace, themed evenings, and artistic encounters shape the life of the restaurant. More information about the restaurant can be found here: https://fribourg.ch/de/freiburg/restaurants/le-grand-pont/.

A beautiful city with a coherent old town and a remnant of its own character (rare nowadays).

The Lamm Restaurant in Wislisau is ideally located for a break or to round off your tour – whether inside or outside under the covered terrace. The Schwarzwasser River flows across the street, and the Biberze River is also nearby, heading towards Plötsch.

The Schwarzsee, also known as Lac Noir, is idyllically situated in the canton of Fribourg (Sense district) and is part of the Gantrisch Nature Park. With its deep, dark water and surrounding peaks such as Kaiseregg (2185 m), Schafberg, and Spitzfluh, the lake offers a fascinating panorama. 🌅 Highlights & Activities Surroundings & Nature: The moorland and alpine pastures surrounding the lake are rich in species – with cotton grass, reeds, coots, and dragonflies – ideal for walks and nature observation. Leisure & Recreation: The Schwarzsee is ideal for hiking, swimming, paddling (SUP), or simply lounging on the shore. Accessible for hikes or conveniently by chairlift to Riggisalp – with alpine huts and restaurants. Legends & Experiences: Themed trails with legends from the Sense region, mystical landscapes in the Breccaschlund valley, and spectacular ice palaces in winter attract visitors year-round.
