Delémont

Hiking guide in Delémont

Delémont is the capital of the youngest Swiss canton and the gateway to the Franches-Montagnes, a high limestone plateau of pastures, drystone walls and horses. The roads there are quiet to a degree that surprises cyclists from anywhere else in the country.

The town itself is small and the climate is harsher than the Mittelland — colder winters, real snow on the plateau, and cross-country trails that run when lower ground has nothing.

Hiking

The route is chosen on the day

Switzerland has extraordinary trail signage and it still catches people out, because conditions change fast with altitude and season. Your guide picks the route after seeing the forecast and meeting you, which is the whole point of hiring one rather than following a blog post.

What to bring

Proper boots, layers, water, and something to eat. Your guide carries a first aid kit and knows what the weather is doing. If you are unsure whether your boots are adequate, they probably are not — say so when you book and your guide will tell you what to get.

Common questions

How fit do I need to be?

Say honestly what you can manage in the notes and the route is built around it. A half day at a gentle pace on a good path is achievable for most people in reasonable health.

Can we bring children?

Yes, with the route chosen accordingly. Tell us their ages — it is the single biggest factor in what is sensible.

What happens if the weather turns?

Your guide decides, and that decision is not negotiable. If the day is cancelled for safety we move it or refund it.
