Schweiz plaisir JURA

Author: Sandro von Känel

Climbing amongst vineyards and castle ruins, on plateaus and in narrow gorges, surrounded by ancient oak forests or directly above the city...this is all the Jura! The cliffs are mostly nice, and short. Only rarely will you find big walls as you might find in the foothills of the Alps. Nevertheless, these cliffs see a lot of traffic since they often are the closest climbing opportunity for climbers living in cities in Northern Switzerland. Thanks to it’s lower elevation and mild temperatures, Jura climbing is perfect for winter visits. Only the fog can sometimes dampen your mood! The latest edition (2017) has been completely revised and supplemented with a few new areas.
