The ‘Gravel Trans Jura’ is a unique Bikepacking adventure! It’s a cycling adventure in which each participant sets his or her own pace and lifestyle. Over 400 kilometres and 11,000 metres of ascent, the route leads from Baden to Nyon, crossing countless Jura mountain ranges, offering incredible panoramic views and impressively demonstrating the unspoilt beauty of the Jura.
From luxurious hotel nights to camping mats and sleeping bags, anything is possible. Thanks to a detailed roadbook, participants receive comprehensive documentation that allows them to modify their own plans at any time, adapting them to daily conditions and their own state of mind.
Overlooking Lake Neuchâtel, the canton of Vaud is the last of the six cantons to be reached. At an altitude of 1100 metres, Sainte-Croix is one of the last large towns.
