Sure. What I like from this hike is that it actually ends up with the
rest of the crowd. Other possibilities with that criteria satisfied
include:
- From "Les Rochat" to Soliat: 2h20, 350m uphill.
- From "St-Aubin" to Soliat, 3h40, 1040m uphill.
- From "Couvet" to Soliat, 3h10, 600m uphill.
(All three need some coaches transportation, Couvet being the farest,
but also the one going to the Asphalt mine AFAIK).
The other possibility is doing that trip in the afternoon, downhill from
Creux-du-Van:
- From Creux-du-Van to Creux-du-Moulin; 2h10, 800m downhill
- From Creux-du-Van to Boudry; 3h45, 1100m downhill
- From Noiraigue to Boudry through Gorges de l'Areuse; 2h45, 400m
downhill
I think we should really think in terms of avoiding empty coaches moves,
so going from or to places that are otherwise used for non-hiking
attendees is worthwhile IMHO.
Cheers,
OdyX
