Tips from the Community
The route up from Biere on the Swiss side is a solid steady climb with a few 12% and 13% sections. Traffic is quite light and the road is excellent. The trees give some nice protection from the sun and wind. Crossing the col northwards takes you down to the Vallé de Joux on a pretty steep decent with great corners and some short straights. My brakes made sounds I have never heard before! I did this and Col de Mollendrux together for a great 80k / 1,500 m ride. Recommended.

You can climb the Col du Marchairuz on a road bike from three sides. This route starts in the village of Gimel. The climb is not very steep until Saint-George, after which it becomes a bit more challenging. The final few kilometers up are treeless, offering magnificent views of the Lake Geneva region and the Alps.

The village of Saint-George is nestled in a typical Jura environment. Its name refers to the prince of Cappadocia who, according to legend, freed a city or a princess by defeating a dragon. The myth explains the presence of the creature on the village's coat of arms.

Beautiful small town in the Vaudois Jura, with many old buildings. The villages are the starting point for outdoor activities, in summer and winter. The setting is spectacular, and you can enjoy the superb views of Lake Geneva and the Alps.

Rolle Castle was built in the 13th century and stands directly on the lakeshore. The fortress is not open to the public, but the castle with its unusual design can also be explored from the outside.
