Sense–Glâne–Veveyse Cycling Routes

A collection of 5 cycling routes.

Overview

About this collection

A hilly collection linking the Sense, Glâne, and Veveyse districts in Canton Fribourg, Switzerland. Expect punchy climbs and sweeping farm‑road descents, with roughly 1,800 m of vertical on mostly paved surfaces.

The routes lean heavily on quiet country roads, with a few short stretches on busier roads and the odd gravel or cobbled bit—totally fine on a road bike with sturdy tires. Terrain rolls through fields, forests, and small villages in a bilingual (German/French) corner of Fribourg, right between the Swiss Plateau and the pre‑Alps.

Start wherever suits you—any town in the three valleys works—and link segments into a solid day out. Trains run across the region, so it’s easy to shorten or bail if needed.

Best for riders who like steady climbing, rural scenery, and village-to-village riding. Bring lights for traffic or dim sections, a wind layer for the ridges, and a little time for a bakery stop. Use a GPS track for the few busier connectors and enjoy the quiet lanes everywhere else.
