Hiking holidays in the Jura
Travelogue
When the weather is nice, we start our hike in Tramelan towards Mont Crosin. First flat, then steeper through the forest. The path is narrow and framed by Turkish lilies. Once at the top, we hike from a closed mountain restaurant to a closed alpine hut. The wind turbines turn in the rain, their wings regularly disappearing into the clouds in the upper turning range. On Mont Crosin we find shelter in one of the two restaurants before we take the bus down to St. Imier and take the train to Courtelary. A visit to the "Camille Bloch" chocolate factory (Ragusa !!!) ends the day relatively sweetly.

From Tramelan we climb the path to Pâturage du Droit. We pass forest areas and clearings and enjoy the great diversity of plants and animals. On a mountain trail we get to the lookout point Haute du Bémont and enjoy the view to the Vosges on the one hand and the Chasseral on the other. In the restaurant Les Places we enjoy a good lunch on the viewing terrace with a beautiful view of Tavannes. We take the way back through the forest and after 45 minutes we reach our campsite, which is right next to the local Piscine (swimming pool).

We take the train to Moutier in the Canton of Jura. From the train station, the route first goes to the 1000-year-old Romanesque church Chapelle de Charière, which used to belong to the Moutier-Grandvalle monastery. It is used today as a cemetery church and can be visited.
It is only a stone's throw from the church to the entrance to the gorge. It is steadily uphill on a good hiking trail. The road follows the road for a short time, but is then led separately again. We pass picnic areas and then reach a steep and narrow stretch of road until the gorge suddenly widens and we arrive at the edge of the village of Court. The train takes you back to Tramelan. In Tavannes we have to wait 40 minutes for the connecting train, but enjoy a cool beer in the restaurant opposite the station.

The weather is not optimal today. So we decide on a tour of the village. A brochure is available in the tourist office at the train station, which shows the sights of the place and recommends a suitable circular route.
With this document we are on the way. We walk through the first cinema of the entire Jura arch, the Schuhaus, community center and many buildings of the old watch metropolis, but also an old quarter with beautiful farmhouses. Here industrial history and the skill or clumsiness of a region with monoculture are clearly visible.
Finally, the path leads us past a new sports center and over a bridge back to the center. After that there is still the way home to the campsite.

With the Jurabahn we get to the stop "La Chaux-de-Breuleux", on the edge of an agricultural hamlet. Already here we are surrounded by the wide pastures, which are occasionally interspersed with fir trees. In the background is the Montagne du Droit with the many wind generators of the Mont Crosin. Now it goes northeast through the moor (Tourbière) and reach a small but fine pond in the forest. The calm is guaranteed!
Now it goes north over Jura pastures. Horses and cows graze freely to the left and right of the trail. So we get to the Etang de la Gruère, also a moor lake with a beautiful, but often used circular route.
Finally, we hike to Saignelegier. Shortly before the place we pass the sports facility, where we can eat well. At the end it goes to the train station and by train via Le Noirmont back to Tramelan. The train ride leads through partially untouched natural landscapes with a unique flair. The trip is really recommended and cannot be covered by car.

Bei anfänglich schönem Wetter starten wir unsere Wanderung in Tramelan Richtung Mont Crosin. Zuerst flach, dann steiler geht es durch den Wald hinauf. Der Weg ist schmal und von Türkenbundlilien gerahmt. Oben angekommen, wandern wir von geschlossenem Bergrestaurant zu geschlossener Alphütte. Im Regen drehen sich die Windräder, deren Flügel im oberen Drehbereich regelmässig in den Wolken verschwinden. Auf dem Mont Crosin finden wir Unterschlupf in einem der beiden Restaurants, bevor wir mit dem Bus nach St. Imier hinunterfahren und mit dem Zug nach Courtelary fahren. Ein Besuch in der Schokoladenfabrik "Camille Bloch" (Ragusa!!!) schliesst den Tag relativ süss ab.
Erledigung von Einkäufen sowie Rundwanderung um den Uhrmacherort sowie etwas ausruhen.
Von Tramelan steigen wir auf dem Wanderweg hoch zur Pâturage du Droit. Wir passieren Waldflächen und Lichtungen und geniessen die grosse Diversität an Pflanzen und Tieren. Auf einem Höhenweg gelangen wir zur Aussichtsstelle Haute du Bémont und geniessen die Aussicht bis zu den Vogesen einerseits und zum Chasseral auf der anderen Seite. Im Restaurant Les Places geniessen wir ein gutes Mittagsmahl auf der Aussichtsterrasse mit schönem Blick auf Tavannes. Den Rückweg nehmen wir direkt durch den Wald und erreichen nach 45 Minuten wieder unseren Campingplatz, der sich direkt neben dem örtlichen Piscine (Schwimmbad) befindet.
Mit der Bahn fahren wir nach Moutier im Kanton Jura. Vom Bahnhof geht die Route zuerst zur 1000-jährigen romanischen Kirche Chapelle de Charière, die früher zum aufgegangenen Kloster Moutier-Grandvalle gehört hat. Sie wird heute als Friedhofkirche benützt und kann besichtigt werden.
Von der Kirche ist es nur noch ein Katzensprung bis zum Eingang der Schlucht. Es geht stetig bergauf auf einem guten Wanderweg. Eine kurze Zeit folgt der Weg der Strasse, wird dann aber wieder separat geführt. Wir passieren Picknickplätze und gelangen dann zu einem steilen und schmalen Wegstück, bis sich die Schlucht plötzlich weitet und wir am Dorfrand von Court anlangen. Mit der Bahn geht es wieder zurück nach Tramelan. In Tavannes müssen wir zwar 40 Minuten auf den Anschlusszug warten, geniessen jedoch ein kühles Bier im Restaurant vis à vis der Station.
Das Wetter ist heute nicht optimal. So entscheiden wir uns für einen Dorfrundgang. Im Tourismusbüro beim Bahnhof ist eine Broschüre erhältlich, welche die Sehenswürdigkeiten des Ortes aufzeigt und dazu einen geeigneten Rundweg empfiehlt.
Mit dieser Unterlage begeben wir uns auf den Weg. Das erste Kino des ganzen Jurabogens, das Schuhaus, Gemeindehaus sowie viele Gebäude der alten Uhrenmetropole, aber auch ein altes Quartier mit schönen Bauernhäuser durchwandern wir. Hier wird Industriegeschichte und Geschick oder Ungeschick einer Region mit Monokultur gut ersichtlich.
Zum Schluss führt uns der Weg vorbei an einem neuen Sportzentrum und über eine Brücke zurück ins Zentrum. Danach bleibt noch der Heimweg zum Campingplatz.
Mit der Jurabahn gelangen wir zur Haltestelle "La Chaux-de-Breuleux", am Rand eines landwirtschaftlichen Weilers. Bereits hier umschliessen uns die weiten Weiden, die gelegentlich mit Tannen durchsetzt sind. Im Hintergrund befindet sich der Montagne du Droit mit den vielen Windgeneratoren des Mont Crosin. Nun geht es in nordöstlicher Richtung durch das Moor (Tourbière) und gelangen an einen kleinen aber feinen Weiher im Wald. Die Ruhe ist gewährleistet!
Nun geht es nördlich über Juraweiden. Pferde und Kühe weiden hier frei links und rechts des Wanderweges. So gelangen wir zum Etang de la Gruère, ebenfalls einem Moorsee mit einem schönen, aber häufig begangenen Rundweg.
Zum Schluss wandern wir nach Saignelegier. Kurz vor dem Ort passieren wir die Sportanlage, wo wir uns gut verpflegen können. Am Ende geht es zum Bahnhof und mit der Bahn über Le Noirmont zurück nach Tramelan. Die Fahrt mit der Bahn führt durch teilweise unberührte Naturlandschaften mit einzigartigem Flair. Die Fahrt ist wirklich zu empfehlen und kann nicht per Auto zurückgelegt werden.
- 47.2267 7.1222
- 47° 13' 36.2" N 7° 7' 19.8" E
Diese verläuft problemlos und innert gut zwei Stunden Fahrzeit. Eine schöne Woche auf einem idealen Campingplatz ist zu Ende und wird in Erinnerung bleiben.
