An easy hike for families and nature lovers.

"We live in Laufen and particularly enjoy walking in the Jura. One day, we saw that a new walk had been created, the Valdorée: a sort of round trip of the two valleys surrounding Delémont. We gave in to temptation and it took us three months to complete all of the stages (10 days of holiday would have been enough!). There is a surprising variety of landscapes. We still remember the forests on the uplands of Delémont, the viewpoints, particularly at Montsevelier, the beautiful picnic spots you can find throughout the route and, last but not least, the blackberries that we picked in large numbers to make jelly. We enjoyed walking on untarmaced paths with very good signposting, so thank you to those who had this wonderful idea."
