In Roman times, the Jura was crossed through the Schüss gorge north of the small town of Studen/Petinesca, or what is now Biel. Parts of this ancient road were excavated by the Archaeological Service of the Canton of Bern. The Roman Jura transversal was examined at various points during the construction work on the A16 national road between Biel and Tavannes in 1992 and 1994. Parts of the Roman road that are accessible today are at the so-called Martinsklafter in Péry, in the Tournedos field in Sonceboz or at the Pierre-Pertuis in the municipality of Tavannes. The latter is a natural opening in the rock that was used as a road passage in Roman times and was provided with an inscription

We recommend loading your bike on the train from Sonceboz to Biel. The cycle path through the Taubenloch Gorge leads through motorway tunnels.

If you're looking for a scenic and easy hike in the Jura Mountains, you should try the Sentier du petit Cervin in Tavannes. This trail takes you from the town of Tavannes to the top of the Petit Matterhorn, a small hill that resembles the famous Matterhorn. Along the way, you can admire the rolling countryside, forest and Lake Biel. The trail is well marked and suitable for families and beginners.
