Neuchatel is a pleasant city with a medieval center situated in the middle of vineyards on the shores of Lake Neuchatel, the largest lake located entirely in Switzerland. Above Neuchatel, roads and train tracks rise steeply into the folds and ridges of the Jura mountain range – a wild and hilly country characterized by remote, windswept settlements and deep, rugged valleys. This is also the heartland of the celebrated Swiss watchmaking industry and known as the Swiss Watch Valley. Distances to other popular Swiss Destinations:
