Saut de Brot stone bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Saut de Brot bridge is certainly one of the most beautiful places in the Areuse Gorge. The old stone bridge takes you to the other side of the Areuse and makes a fantastic photo opportunity.

Green Metal Bridge over the Areuse Gorge

Highlight • Bridge

14.1 km

Follow the path of the Gorges de l'Areuse to discover this magnificent landscape carved by the waters that descend from the Jura. This part of the gorge is very narrow, animated by the narrow cliffs and numerous waterfalls.

Areuse Falls

Highlight • Waterfall

This is where you will encounter the powerful force of the Areuse, wedged on either side of the rocky cliffs that border it. A real site to see which will not disappoint you.

May 11, 2024,Areuse Schlucht / Noiraigue

Today we went from Noiraigue to the Areuse Gorge. Very beautiful gorge with great river landscapes. Unfortunately we couldn't manage the last three kilometers to Boudry due to maintenance work. Instead of going up the hill and back by public transport, we chose the same route back because it was so beautiful. At the wooden bridge Passerelle sur l'Areuse there …

A river, like a lucky bag. Whenever you think that's it, the Areuse turns it up again. Surprised, fascinated and charmed. And has been for over 100 years. In 1886 the association "Sentiers des Gorges de l'Areuse" was founded. Its goal: to maintain the paths, paths, stairs, railings and bridges along the Gorges de l'Areuse. And that's not a few. …

Gorges de l'Areuse. What a monumental spectacle! Our tour begins in Noiraigue, (pronounced Noiräg) right next to the public parking lot, (5 .- per day) and along the railway line. What begins rather unspectacularly at the beginning soon turns into a monumental natural spectacle of the roaring rushing kind. Both river and gorge now form a duet of numerous waterfalls, …

Discover the Areuse: sometimes wide, sometimes narrow, bubbling here, there tranquil. Brilliant, unique, wild, with an abundance of water – all in all, breathtakingly beautiful.

This enchanting hiking trail follows the sometimes roaring watercourse of the Areuse. It leads over stone bridges, footbridges, and steps, through rocky narrow passages, and along impressively rugged cliffs. Given the rather poor weather forecast, …

Walked through a very diverse gorge. Some places really look like you're in the jungle. Today, we took the train back, taking it easy. This time, we actually got on and off the train. 🫣😅

the areuse gorge, the first half from noiraigue is nothing special apart from the stone bridge. the path was often wide and asphalted and I didn't particularly like it. after the delicious lunch at the hôtel de la truite (highly recommended), the path became narrower and rougher, leading over many narrow bridges and wooden walkways. I liked this part of …
