Cozy self-check-in hotel in Vallorbe. We stayed there on our long-distance hike from Tarifa (Spain) to Switzerland and can highly recommend the hotel.

Vallorbe–Le Pont Forest Path

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A traffic-free connection between Vallorbe and Le Pont on Lac de Joux. Mostly gravel and almost everything in the forest. And apart from small parts, the slope is very pleasant. Relaxing!
