This beautiful and not very strenuous tour gives us a feel for the term "Jura folds". The terrain slopes from Chasseron towards Lake Neuchâtel, but not evenly in the area of this tour. The terrain drops steeply at first, then forms a terrace in the Ste. Croix area up to Mauborget and then drops steeply again.
From Ste. Croix we ride uphill through the lower part of the ski area until we reach the highest point of this tour at Les Cernets-Dessus. Shortly before we should enjoy the view. The highest point is in a saddle that takes us over to the valley of La Vaux. From here we go around a first hump on the right and reach La Combaz, where a restaurant is waiting for us. Around a second hump we come to Mauborget, where we can enjoy a magnificent view of the upper Lake Neuchâtel from the slope. Now we ride along the lower steep slope for a long time without any big gradients or climbs, until shortly before Bullet we can enjoy another beautiful view, this time of the basin of Ste. Croix, where the L Arnon stream rises, which has cut its way into the "Gorges de Covatanne" gorge shortly below Ste. Croix. At the entrance to the gorge or at the Château de Ste. Croix, we cross the stream and the valley side and climb one last time, this time back to the starting point.
