Gorge of Orbe

Thanks to the natural reserve that has protected the site and its flora since 1970 and has guaranteed calm for the wildlife, this excursion allows the hiker to walk through a preserved natural environment.

Natural pine forests, oregano, wild thyme, juniper and certain orchids can be admired along the path, as well as glacial mills in the upper part of the village of Les Clées. The River Orbe is the habitat for trout, kingfishers, grey herons, chamois and even beavers on the lower part of the trail.

Parking possibilities in Vallorbe or Orbe, busses or trains between the two localities. Restricted schedules at weekends, but the possibility of using PubliCar service. Hikers are requested to follow the path and to respect the diversions. Great care is required on all paths.
