ハーグネックの峡谷・トップ8

I've done it many times and it's always beautiful. First, up on the funicular...

The Vaux stream is nestled among the trees of the Bernese Jura forest, and flows between Lignières and La Neuveville. From the Combe du Pilouvi trail, the view of the falls is breathtaking. It is a natural site full of magic, where witches once came to bathe in the sparkling water of the pools.

A magnificent trail winds through a bucolic landscape along the gorge. Numerous walkways and galleries carved into the cliffs offer breathtaking views of waterfalls and pools. There is an entrance fee to the gorge (CHF 2 per adult and CHF 1 per child), and the trail is closed during the winter until Easter.

The Pilouvi Gorge is an enchanting place with several waterfalls cascading into natural pools. It is said that witches used to bathe there. The Ruisseau de Vaux stream flows from Lignières to the medieval town of La Neuveville. This small valley has its own history: first as a retreat for a devout hermit and later as a meeting place for Satanists. The hike through the Combe du Pilouvi begins in a peaceful forest setting with a slight climb and at the entrance to the Combe the Vaux stream cascades down through beautiful gorges. From the path, the view of the waterfalls is simply indescribable. The Ruisseau de Vaux - or Ruz de Vaux - is a four-kilometer-long stream in the Neuchâtel and Bernese Jura and forms part of the border between the cantons of Neuchâtel and Bern. The name of the water refers to the settlement of Vaux on the lower reaches of the stream. The hike through the Combe de Pilouvi gorge created by this river is one of the scenic attractions of the Lake Biel region.

The Pilouvi is worth seeing, see earlier reports from me. Finally, the pool with the waterfall. Accessible on foot from several sides, many steps, sloping, but not a problem if you are sure-footed and wear good shoes. In the summer very refreshing water dust cloud with the right wind :-)

Alternative route to go down or up. Not only is the route varied and full of bends, the rock formations are also tough. You can only see a little of the gorge itself at the beginning, after that you are too high / far away to risk a look. The route is not demanding, but it should not be underestimated - especially when driving up (bio) or hiking. Shady in summer...

When the weather is nice, a dream of water, stone and greenery There is a risk of slipping on wet floors! At the top of the entrance into the gorge, make sure to take a break in the Zünd event glass blowing workshop (with restaurant).
