History and countryside at a holiday home in the Canton of Fribourg

A holiday home in the Canton of Fribourg will put guests in the heart of Switzerland. Located at the edge of the Alps, the canton consists of a flat plateau and gentle hills in the southeast, as the landscape gradually turns into a more mountainous region. Dairy cows can be seen throughout the countryside as travellers pass from one small village to the next. Renting a holiday house or holiday apartment will allow visitors to enjoy this wonderful, natural landscape with particular ease and comfort.

Traveling around the city can be made more interesting by riding on its unusual, trackless train.
