Cascade and Cave of Môtiers

Highlight • Waterfall

A remarkable waterfall for the Jura. The grotto, however, is a little cave at best 😃

Starting point of the Poëta-Raisse gorge

Highlight • Waterfall

Just a few hundred meters from the edge of the village is the entrance (or, coming from the other direction, the exit) of the Poëta Raisse Gorge. It can be visited and hiked free of charge.

There are a few parking spaces, a large log cabin for picnics, and a signpost.
