Creux du Van

Reviewed By Calliopehk

Well worth the trip out here - we did the circuit hike. First half pretty steep up and a bit muddy. Most descriptions didn’t mention but there are quite a few places to have a meal on the way including the farm at the top, as well as to refill water. Also great scenic picnic spots so worth coming for the day.

Lac de Neuchatel

Reviewed By beatrizm115 - Dortmund, Germany

Really beautiful lake promenade in the center of Neuchatel, it is possible to sit on concrete or also in the pebbles of the pebbles beach. Directly access to the water from the center so you can swim! But limited space. Visited in winter, a sunny and warm day and everyone was sitting outside enjoying the sun, it was an awesome feeling. Amazing sunset too.

Gorges de l'Areuse

Reviewed By 172matthiasw - Geneva, Switzerland

We walked through the Gorge from the station of Boudry up to the station in Noiraigue. It took us about a bit more than 4 h, including a lunch break in between. Particularly pitoresque in October with all the trees changing colour. We didn't rush, so maybe in Summer you can start a bit earlier and then combine the hike with another 3 h around the Creux du Van (which splits off at some point close to Noiraigue). The gorge has many nice little and larger waterfalls along the way, and quite a narrow canyon at the start close to Boudry.

Esplanade du Mont-Blanc

Reviewed By GranZorro - Zug, Switzerland

This central green space on the lake promenade and opening towards the old city boast a very interesting small exhibit of sculptures, some of them by well known artists. From the port it's a 10 minute promenade along the lake, from the central square a few minutes crossing some busy streets.
