The Berneuse (or la Berneuse) is a minor summit below the Tour d'Aï in the Bernese Alps above Leysin in Switzerland. This summit is a popular place because of the revolving restaurant (the Kuklos)[2] on the top which is accessible by cable cabin from town. On a clear day, Lake Geneva is visible from this summit.
