The Jura

Walking the Jura High Route and Winter Ski Traverses:
The Jura High Route is 299 km long, stretching from Dielsdorf, outside Zurich,
to Borex, a small village to the north of Geneva. Along the way it passes over
the highest summits of the Swiss Jura. It traverses meadowland and forest and
visits isolated farms, secluded villages locked in a world all their own,
historic small towns, ruined castles.
The purpose of the Winter Ski Traverses section is twofold. First to point out
the vast possibilities for enjoyable winter walking on skis in the Jura; and
second to encourage those walkers and backpackers who have not yet taken to
skis that they are missing an unforgettable experience.
