ジーゼレンの峡谷・トップ9

From Frienisberg via this short trail to the Chutzenturm, then continue northwest to the Lobsiger sandstone caves.

Very pretty gorge to do with family, with friends. Accessible with an average physical level. So, nice little walk that could be followed by a navigation on Lake Bienne.

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.

A nice walk to take on a Sunday morning before the lakeside restaurant. Top !

Highlight title quote “Tell’s Hohle Gasse”? There is only one "Tell's Hohle Gasse" and it is not in this location. The Hohle Gasse is an artificial ravine between Küssnacht and Immensee in Switzerland. William Tell is said to have shot the Habsburg governor Hermann Gessler in Hohle Gasse in 1307. In Friedrich Schiller's drama Wilhelm Tell, Tell says (IV, 3): “He must come through this hollow alley. There is no other way to Küssnacht.” Today's Hohle Gasse was once the road from Küssnacht to Immensee. As traffic increased, a bypass was built in 1937, which relieved the Hohle Gasse of motorized traffic. The old road was narrowed with the help of stone blocks.

The path leads between the steep rock walls, partly over wooden footbridges, from one spectacular passage to the next - the Twannbach rushes and roars wildly through the narrow parts of the gorge down to the dreamy wine-growing village of Twann and into Lake Biel.

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.
