CREST TRAIL
NO STEEP ASCENTS OR DESCENTS – GOOD FOR THOSE WHO ENJOY WALKING AS A HOBBY
 
The Jura Crest Trail has a long-standing tradition as a long-distance footpath. Despite this, access to accommodation and catering does present certain difficulties as there are very few places to stay over the first peaks of the Jura. Luckily there are lots of post buses and train connections which lead down into the southern foothills where there are places to stay. The Jura Crest Trail offers pleasant walking opportunities - minimal height variations and generally good pathways. Note the somewhat longer walking times for each stage.
