Chutzen Tower in Frienisberg
If they had known, they would have flown Elliott and E.T. here. At the top of Chutzen hill is a wooden tower standing 45 metres high: Chutzen Tower. E.T. could easily “phone home” here! This tour offers specular 360 degree views over the Jura Mountains, Seeland, the Prealps and the Alps. In such a location, you could be sure to see Elliott and E.T. riding their bike in the air...
Valangin Castle
If they had known, they would have fought the battle of Hogwarts here. Proudly positioned on a rock atop Seyon gorge, Valangin Castle was home to local lords from the mid-twelfth century. Discover ancient magic and the secrets of the past on a medieval tour of the castle, wall-walk and fortifications. Valangin Castle is filled with surprises that will send a shiver down every muggle's spine. This promontory has an air of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone about it...
Franches-Montagnes
If they had known, they would have parked the Into The Wild bus here. Say goodbye to the everyday and take this fascinating route into the Doubs Nature Park. Gaze onto majestic forests and vast pastures, home to ruminants, interspersed with isolated farms and small picturesque villages as far as the eye can see. With its outstanding wilderness, this region is a hikers’ paradise. With the surrounding nature in all of its blazing colours, you could be forgiven for thinking you’ve stepped into the scenery from Into The Wild...
Clendy Menhirs
If they had known, they would have carved Obelix’s menhirs here. Get a real taste of the indomitable Gauls from Asterix and Obelix. When works to correct the waters of the Jura (1869-1883) lowered the level of Lake Neuchâtel by 2.7 metres, it revealed 45 statue menhirs, each standing at up to 4.5 metres and weighing up to 5 tonnes. Touch them and these age-old stones will act like a magic potion, sending you 6,000 years back into the past. Those Roman legionaries in Eburodunum had better watch out...
Cité du Temps
If they had known, they would have infiltrated dreams in Inception here. Welcome to the temple of watchmaking, the object of all desire. No, you are not dreaming! In the Cité du Temps, discover and explore the fascinating worlds of the brands OMEGA and Swatch. You may find yourself feeling very vulnerable in the face of such beauty. Although, the place is so well guarded that even Dom Cobb, master dream extractor in Inception, would not be able to get inside or infiltrate your mind...
Bernese Jura
If they had known, they would have set off on the Lord of the Rings quest here. The ridges of the Bernese Jura, which have been certified free of Mount Doom, invite you to enjoy fantastic scenic hikes. Traverse steep cliffs, vast meadows, silent forests and wild fauna on this immortal land - all the while finding it hard to shake off the peculiar feeling that you are being watched by the elves and hobbits of the Lord of the Rings...
Étangs de Bonfol
If they had known, they would have rehearsed the Dirty Dancing choreography here. An idyllic setting for a budding romance. Take a reflective stroll and enjoy a romantic getaway in the magnificent Étangs de Bonfol nature preserve, a haven of greenery. The resemblance to Mountain Lake in Dirty Dancing is uncanny. The perfect setting for those whose hearts beat to the rhythm of nature...
Chasseral Park
If they had known, they would have filmed the Jurassic Park attack scene here. Huge trees adorned with sparkling greenery, with warming rays of sunshine peeking through. The similarities between Kauai Forest in Jurassic Park and Combe Grède are striking. However, do not fear, you will not come face to face with a dinosaur at the foot of these wild cliffs. In this lost world, you are more likely to encounter foxes, marmots, chamois and peregrine falcons...
Gorges of Poëta-Raisse
If they had known, they would have looked for Indiana Jones’ Grail here. The Gorges of Poëta-Raisse, with their unspoilt nature and wild fauna, are reminiscent of the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in Indiana Jones. From enclosed passageways to cascading waterfalls, passing a spring where the temperature never exceeds 4 degrees no matter the time of year, adventure is guaranteed. You will not be ambushed in this legendary scenery, but it is the perfect setting for the Raiders of the Lost Ark...
Font beach
If they had known, they would have found the Cast Away beach here. Right at the heart of the Grande Cariçaie nature reserve is Font beach, with its unfamiliar yet alluring setting. Tranquillity and a gentle way of life are guaranteed in this wild but never hostile location. You certainly will not get bored on this wild beach. On the contrary, we would gladly wash ashore here and forget about the world for a while. Like Chuck in Cast Away...
