If you don't want to do the 3-hour hike, you can drive to the "Le Soliat" restaurant in your mobile home and from there take a short hike to the Creux du Van and enjoy the wonderful view from there - a unique experience! On the hike from the Le Soliat restaurant, however, you don't see the ibexes on the rock face!

Eine wunderbare Tour und schöne Bilder! Ich bin ein Fan von Schweizreisen. Ich hoffe, ihr habt am Creux du Van eine Wanderung zum Aussichtspunkt auf den Soliat gemacht. Bei klarem Wetter liegen die Highlights der Schweizer Bergwelt wie auf der Perlenschnur vor einem. Außerdem führt dieser Weg z.T. außerhalb der Almmäuerchen am Rand des Cirque entlang. Das Käsefondue auf der Soliatalm ist legendär und originaler geht es nicht. Der Platz vor der Alm darf als Stellplatz genutzt werden. Der Jura - immer noch ein Geheimtipp. Großartig!
Vielen Dank für Ihren Kommentar! Wir konnten leider keine Wanderung am Creux du Van unternehmen da meine Frau gehbehindert ist! Wäre sicher sehr schön !
Tolle Bilder! Vielen Dank für den informativen Bericht!
