Plateau de Diesse
La Neuveville Plateau de Diesse
Select your Region:
High above Lake Bielersee, almost halfway up the imposing face of the Chasseral, lies the Plateau de Diesse. Though the area itself isn�t really that well known, Swiss author Friedrich Dürrenmatt used it as the setting for his intriguing pot-boiler �The Judge and His Hangman�. In any case, the landscapes you�ll experience on this tour are truly stunning. Lake Bielersee lies below a belt of vineyard slopes, above them you notice a stretch of woodland, and cornfields at the top dominate the view. Picturesque wine-growing villages round off the picture postcard impression, and from a technical point of view, this circuit is a biker�s delight. So have fun and enjoy!
