Romainmôtier Abbey

Highlight • Religious Site

If you want to hike through the "Nozon Gorge", you "must" definitely pay a visit to the medieval town of Romainmôtier and the former Benedictine abbey. It would be even better to include this place of power, full of romantic history and spirituality, in your hike. The somewhat sleepy village of Romainmôtier, nestled in the seemingly evergreen nature of the Vaud region, is just 1.5 km from the Croy-Romainmôtier train station and can be easily reached on foot or by postbus. Danger! Unfortunately, the PostBus doesn't drive so diligently. Therefore, first check the travel times for who is arriving by public transport. If you want to come here by car or camper, you will find a spacious nature park area just a few minutes' walk from the center. (Paying) The abbey and its surrounding buildings, squares and alleys form the heart of this pretty little town. Everything, absolutely everything, transports the visitor to a bygone era. The collegiate church, which is open to the public, is a real feast for the eyes. In general, the monastery complex is one of the oldest, if not the oldest, in Switzerland. So if you don't pay attention to this historic place on your trip to the Vaudois nature, you've really missed something. ABSOLUTE VISIT RECOMMENDATION!!!

Dard Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

This is where you get that Colorado Canyon feeling! Magnificent cascades and a small "pond" at their feet. However, only recommended for particularly "cool people" in midsummer. teddy-b.ch/ausflugsziel/cascade-du-dard-romainmotier-vd-colorado-feeling
