Hiking in Chasseral Switzerland




Spring has sprung!! We went for a long hike in Chasseral, Switzerland on Saturday. It's located in the Jura Mountain range that spans parts of Switzerland and France (yes, there are other mountains besides the Alps!). The weather was perfect, and it provided many great views of the surrounding areas. As we got higher, we encountered some snow that we had to tromp through - Nancy loved that part! The highlight was at the top where we were able to watch many people paragliding near the Chasseral Hotel. You can see a video here. After six hours of walking, we were tired and ready to return to Basel. See pictures from the hike here.
