Escursioni e passeggiate attorno a Yverdon

Il Giura si erge proprio dietro Yverdon, e la riva del lago corre piatta nell'altra direzione: le camminate sono eccezionali, dalle dolci passeggiate tra i vigneti alla vista su otto laghi dalla cima della Dent de Vaulion. Ecco gli itinerari di punta.

Le distanze e i tempi provengono dall'ufficio del turismo regionale; la difficoltà non è sempre indicata, quindi regolatevi in base a lunghezza e dislivello. La regione elenca oltre 250 itinerari; questi sono i nostri preferiti; sfogliate l'elenco completo dell'ufficio del turismo per il resto. Verificate sempre il meteo e lo stato dei sentieri prima di salire.
