This impressive hike is part of the “Jurahöhenweg”. The phenomenal, horseshoe-shaped rock-face at Creux du Van is one of the scenic highlights of the region.

In order to get to Creux du Van we started in Noiraigue. The path up to the North end of Creux du Van is well marked. We then followed the edge of the spectacular cliff walls to Le Soliat. From there we took the path to Chez Les Favre and walked down to Travers via Haut de la Côte.
