Rochers de Naye is a mountain 2,042 metres (6,699 ft)[2][3] above Montreux,[4] from where the Chemin de fer Montreux-Glion-Rochers-de-Naye leads to its peak.
In addition, it is also possible to access the summit by driving to Col de Jaman and then making the 2-3 hr hike to the peak.
Rochers de Naye is also known for the Rochers de Naye Via Ferrata[5] considered to be extremely difficult (ED), the Grottes de Naye (caves which are accessible via the trail between Col de Jaman and Rochers de Naye), and a few enclosures hosting marmots from around the world.
