CHASSERAL RIDGE HIKE - the BEST VIEWS in the Swiss Jura mountains accessible to anyone
Have you been to Chasseral yet? Then what are you waiting for? On a clear day this place will give you amazing views onto the Swiss Alps, Jura and the region of 3 lakes: lake Neuchatel, lake Bienne and lake Morat. You can easily get there by bus (operates on the weekends and public holidays) or by car. We loved this viewpoint because it is accessible to anyone! You can just stay at the Chasseral hotel for a drink with a view, or walk on a paved and stroller-friendly path to the antenna or hike even further on the Chasseral ridge trail.
