    Tips

    January 2, 2024

    From the viewpoint of the Tichodrome via ferrata, you benefit from a breathtaking panorama of the Val de Travers, a valley in the Jura renowned for its watchmaking industry and its absinthe production. You will also see the village of Noiraigue, starting point for many hiking trails in the region, such as the Creux du Van circuit. If you're lucky, you might also spot the tichodrome, a rare and colorful bird that lives on the cliff and gives its name to the via ferrata. The tichodrome has a red bill, a black head, a gray back and orange wings which contrast with the green vegetation of the cliff. It is a protected species, which is why the via ferrata is closed from January 1 to June 30 to respect its reproduction period.
