The Discovery
A short but nervous route that starts directly with a climb up to the windmills before descending along a little-known path to the St-Imier valley. After a short flat section, the second ascent in the forest to find itself in the heights of Tramelan. After a varied section in the middle of nature, it's time for a quick descent to the finish arch.
The Crossing
A course that passes by the wind park of Mt-Soleil before a steep and technical descent to St-Imier. There, instead of continuing towards the Combe-Grède and Chasseral, the route follows the valley halfway up the forest before joining the main course and facing the steep climb above Cortébert. At the top, you can feel the arrival and the final descent to Tramelan.
The Essential
This course requires a good physical preparation for those who wish to take up a challenge by running a distance close to a marathon but in the middle of nature, with the added bonus of a difference in altitude. It will take trailers to the Mt-Soleil wind farm, to the Chassera antenna via the Combe-Grède and to the Anabaptists bridge.
The Greatness
This new route will take you beyond Chasseral, to the plateau of Diesse and up to the meadows of Orvin. More than 60km of effort and happiness through the most beautiful paths of the Bernese Jura.
