    The mountain ridge between Lake Neuchâtel and Val de Ruz is Neuchâtel's local mountain. A mountain for viewing, a hotel mountain, a mountain of the earth's history and a starting point for Jura hikes. There are three funiculars in Neuchâtel: from the lake to the train station (Expo 2002), from the old town to Le Plan and from La Coudre to Chaumont. The latter goes up to 1087m.

    Next to the mountain station, the characteristic, 100-year-old observation tower offers a fantastic view over the Three Lakes region and as far as the Alps. The "Sentier du Temps" back to Neuchâtel train station is a 4.5km long themed trail on the history of the earth's development; one million years measures exactly one meter. Tree rope park at the mountain station.

      Quiet bike connection between the towns of Concise and Bevaix. It rolls comfortably through small towns above Lake Neuchâtel. Asphalt is of good quality.

        The bike path on the north side is really good and interesting to ride.

        The villages were very sleepy on Saturday around 1pm when I was there. If you need water -> there are lots of fountains.
