Hiking to Valangin From Neuchâtel

Yesterday I went for a hike from Neuchâtel to Valangin. This is a 14 kilometre loop that begins with a relatively steep climb out of the city before heading into the woods. You hear the sounds of the road every so often as you crisscross paths with it. The castle was used from the 12th to the 16th centuries by the Valangin lords. The Way Up As I mentioned in the intro the start of the climb is quite steep, through the woods.

Trees Turning Green

Trees are currently turning green on the Jura. Leaves are growing and so the colour of the Jura is shifting from brown to green at last. Trees suffer in Summer at the moment, due to the lack of rain. That lack of rain results in them changing colour sooner. Yesterday I went for a run in between two lots of rain and I was lucky. As I arrived home rain started to fall on me.
