Chasseral

Chasseral

Saint-Imier, Schüss, Lake Biel and Val-de-Ruz: the Chasseral is not only the highest point in the region, it is also located within a diverse landscape.

Visiting the Chasseral, you can’t help but notice its trademark – the 120-m-high antenna of its telecommunication station. But there is so much more to discover than this prominent eye-catcher: the Comb Grède nature reserve on one side and the high plateau Tessenberg on the other side. A particular highlight presents the bison ranch which excites both small and not-so-small visitors alike.

Nature as an event

At the Chasseral nature reserve, sustainable development plays a prominent role. Visitors can still explore the reserve’s variety: there is plenty of flora and fauna to discover, and the mountain lodges, the so-called Métairies, as well as other gastronomic establishments offer the region’s culinary delights. 387 square kilometres of landscape provide a variety of moors, pastured woodlands and rock formations for visitors to enjoy.
