    Hiking

    If you're looking for an exciting hike in the heart of the mysterious absinthe country, you should visit the Gorges de la Poeta-Raisse, near Môtiers. There you'll discover the stunning waterfall and Rousseau's cave, named after the famous philosopher who lived there. You'll then follow the narrow, steep canyons carved by the Breuil stream, crossing several bridges and wooden staircases. You'll be amazed by the beauty and diversity of this natural site, where water and rocks create a magical landscape. The Gorges de la Poeta-Raisse is a must-see for nature lovers and adventurers.
