Hiking
The valley is characterized by wide, lush floodplains and wet meadows, framed by the typical limestone rocks of the Jura. The slopes are partly wooded, partly marked by striking dolomite rocks, which are so characteristic of the region. The valley also serves as a refuge for rare plants and bird species.
