Grenchenberg

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Grenchenberg is very suitable as a preparation for our beautiful Swiss passes. Not too steep, constant average incline of about 10%. After about an hour you are upstairs and you've done a good job. In the restaurant you can treat yourself to a coffee and enjoy the view or drive a little further to Obergrenchenberg and take a short break there. As a descent, the Grenchenberg is easier to drive than many Jura mountains and is relatively clear. Attention! It has some nasty potholes. It is well suited for U / O training because you can introduce several interval blocks.

Long Steep Ascent

Highlight • Climb

The path is signposted as a MTB route, but is paved. With the translation of my road bike it was a bit too steep 😤

Col de Pierre Pertuis

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Col de Pierre Pertuis is an important pass in terms of traffic, which connects the main Jura traffic axis from Biel to La Chaux-de-Fonds with the Tavannes-Delémont-Basel traffic axis. In addition to the current facts, it is a mystical place that already played a very important role in Roman times. Today the 'pass' is no longer so important for traffic due to the Jura motorway that was completed in the 0s and it has become quiet around it - it is all the more worthwhile to visit it.

Climb to Col de Pierre Pertuis

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

Easy 6-7% climb to the Col de Pierre Pertuis at 827m. It also rolls very well downhill, although you have to look at the fallen stones on the road!

Scenic Road Between Péry and Sonceboz-Sombeval

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Relatively straight connecting road between the two places. It rolls happily through the valley of the river La Suze. Asphalt is good!
