But who is bounè rodzo?
In summer, in the alpine pastures of Charmey, Bounè Rodzo, a discreet and mischievous little elf, helps the farmers. He watches over the herds, does the gardening, cleans the house and makes cheese, all the while remaining discreet. In exchange, he is content with a bowl of milk and a little soup at the end of the day. But beware, if you forget to feed him or respect his discretion, he could play tricks, like letting the cows escape, trampling the garden or spilling the milk.
At the end of summer, he leaves the mountain pastures to settle near the summit of the Dents-Vertes. There, he creates a village where he welcomes visitors and shares a multitude of activities. But watch out, he's always ready to play tricks on you!
PS: Parents are often accomplices in this Gruyère legend! Bounè Rodzo is their best ally when it comes to enforcing discipline 😉
