The meeting is set for Sunday, August 31st, departing from Le Locle at 9 a.m., Switzerland. At the gateway to the Doubs National Park, which owes its name to the river we share and which offers its winding and steep banks as a natural border with Franche-Comté. A green setting mirroring the Doubs Horloger Regional Natural Park.

This is where the hiking-torrée awaits you, a moment combining hiking and local gastronomy. The departure will be from the Château des Monts on the heights of Le Locle.
