Notebooks atop mountains in Fribourg, Switzerland enable like-minded nature lovers to find each other in an analogue alternative to Tinder

Cathy and Patrick relish describing how they found each other: through a message left on a Swiss mountaintop.

“It was just a beautiful way to meet,” said Cathy Rotzetter during a recent hike in the Pre-Alps of the western Swiss canton of Fribourg.

Sick of online dating sites, the 58-year-old said she was thrilled to discover an analogue alternative with a Swiss twist: “Mountain Tinder”.
