Along the river
Route Information
Description
Starting from the charming village of Rossinière, this itinerary takes you to discover our mountain lakes and rivers. Let yourself be guided by the sound of the water which will be your companion throughout this loop!
This loop is ideal for those who want to learn to ride a road bike or get back into the saddle after the winter. On your way, you will cross two lakes and their dams, six rivers and two impressive gorges. The first part of the route to L'Etivaz is a warm-up ride. Between the Sarine river and the Pissot gorge, you can feel the fresh air all around you. As soon as you leave the village of L'Etivaz, attack the climb to the Col des Mosses with the strength of your calves. In the Hongrin valley, enjoy the view of the lake of the same name and the short descents to relax your legs. The hardest part is now behind you. The rest of the route to Montbovon is a 450m descent along the Hongrin, the river fed by the lake and the upstream streams. Finish your loop by returning to Rossinière on the route des Revers. You can see your final destination from the Lac du Vernex dam at the foot of the village.
