Between villages and unspoilt nature, this suggested 82km route takes you on a journey between the cantons of Vaud, Bern and Fribourg. Located between the three regions, the Vanil Noir, an emblematic mountain of the Prealps, will be your landmark throughout your tour.<\/p>\n","itinerary_intro_intro":"
Starting from the village of Ch\u00e2teau-d'\u0152x (possible to start from Rougemont), our tour takes you to Rougemont, the last village before the Bernese border. Enjoy its streets with their typical chalets with facades several hundred years old!<\/p>\n
After warming up, attack your first pass with this climb between Vaud and Bern. The Mittelberg pass, unknown to the general public, is a little corner of paradise in the middle of nature. It leads you to Jaun, following the famous Gastlosen mountain range closely.<\/p>\n
You have now reached the top of the Jaun Pass. The descent to the village of Broc, the birthplace of the chocolate industry, gives your legs a rest. The rest of the route promises to be more leisurely! Before climbing gently back up into the Pays-d'Enhaut, cross the various villages of the Intyamon.<\/p>\n
For the last part of your tour, return to Vaud territory by following the Sarine river between the villages of Rossini\u00e8re, Ch\u00e2teau-d'\u0152x and Rougemont.<\/p>\n","itinerary_practice":"
