Contreforts du Jura

Add to favorites
Circular ride between Yverdon-les-Bains and Vallorbe via the medieval villages of Romainmôtier and Orbe

After cycling on the flat for a while in the Orbe plain, the climb gradually gets steeper in the middle of the countryside before reaching Vallorbe, a town particularly famous for its spectacular caves. The route then runs along the foot of the Jura before gently dropping down to Yverdon-les-Bains.
