Description

The Alps cover 61% of Switzerland's surface area (41,285 km²;) thus making her the second most alpine country after Austria. Despite the fact that Switzerland covers only 13.2% of the Alps total area (190,600 km²;), many alpine four-thousanders (48 of 82) are located in the Swiss Alps and almost the totality of the other are within 20 km of the country's border. The glaciers in the Swiss Alps cover an area of 1230 km² (3% of the Swiss territory), this represent 44% of the total glaciated area in the Alps (2800 km²;).

There aren't the Alps but the...what can you say that in english? The Prealps? Yes, maybe. So, it's the "prealps" of Fribourg, and you can see in this picture the Broc's tooth (Dent de Broc). It was at the beginning of this week. I hope you enjoy it! :)
