テヴノンの滝・トップ4

The hiking trail through the Covatannaz Gorge is beautifully laid out and offers breathtaking views down into the Arnon River. More exposed sections are equipped with metal railings, making this easy hike suitable for families.

Lots of stairs but charming place with absinthe fountains

Shortly before the top, the path is quite narrow and exposed. Not for people with a fear of heights,

Incredibly beautiful gorge. From Môiters, the actual gorge (with dreamy, moss-covered stairs and great wooden walkways) begins just before the canton border. It is worth climbing the sometimes steep stairs. The gorge becomes more beautiful the further you go into it. The path from the car park to the gorge is quite rocky.

Very pretty, even on the way down!

The iroute is open again. We did it today.

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.

The Areuse karst spring is a natural spring which emerges from limestone rocks and forms the Areuse river. You can start your hike from the village of Noiraigue and go up the river to the source, located at the foot of the Clusette cliffs. Along the way, you will enjoy views of gorges, bridges and waterfalls. The Areuse karst source is a good example of underground water circulation in a karst system.
