Tour des Châteaux

Add to favorites
Circular ride around the Plaine de l’Orbe between Yverdon-les-Bains and La Sarraz

Castles and manors are spread along this route so you can admire some architectural jewels which have played a part in the region’s history. Views over Lake Neuchâtel and the Alps follow one after the other, and at the foot of the Jura you will ride through a series of small medieval villages typical of the region.
