Itinerary description

English (castellano debajo):

Everywhere you check this trail you will most likely find from Belleray to Malleray. However, we did not have all that time so we decided to shorten it by starting directly in Saules.
It is true that till the arrival into Saules the road might look a bit narrow and not all paved, but it's ok to get there. From Saules onwards you can also use your car till the tour, however, you need a 4x4 as the last sections are not paved and bumpy, but it's doable.

Apart from that, it's just an hour hike were you will have super nice views if the weather is good.
Along the trail, between the tops of two fir trees, the majestic Tower of Moron suddenly springs up. Designed by the architect, Mario Botta and built by more than 700 trainee bricklayers, this work seeks to bear witness to the transition from the second to the third millennium. In fine weather, the view from the top of the Tower extends over the first chain of the Jura and the Alpine arc, from the Säntis to Mont Blanc. To the north, you can see the Vosges and the Black Forest. Bear in mind that you'll need to ascend 208 stairs!

In the way back we found a restaurant open which was actually a farm with lots of animals running around and kids playing with them. Super cool for the kids if you walk with them.


Castellano:

Lo más probable es que en cualquier sitio donde busques encuentres el camino desde Belleray a Malleray. Sin embargo, no teníamos tiempo así que decidimos acortarlo un poco y empezar directamente desde Saules.
Es verdad que la llegada hasta el pueblo puede parecer complicada ya que el camion no está asfaltado en todo momento y puede ser un poco estrecho, pero se puede llegar fácilmente. A partir de Saules también puedes continuar en coche hasta la torre, pero sin embargo necesitarás un 4x4 ya que la última parte no está asfaltada y tiene bastantes baches, pero se puede hacer.

A parte de eso, es un camino de una hora con unas vistas muy bonitas si el tiepo lo permite.
Durante el camino, entre ala cima de los árboles de repente aparecerá la Torre de Moron. Diseñada por el arquitecto Mario Botta y construida con más de 700 albañiles, esta obra busca dar testimonio del paso del segundo al tercer milenio. Cuando hace buen tiempo, la vista desde lo alto de la Torre se extiende sobre la primera cadena del Jura y el arco alpino, desde el Säntis hasta el Mont Blanc. Al norte, puede ver los Vosgos y la Selva Negra. ¡Tenga en cuenta que deberá subir 208 escalones!

En el camino de vuelta encontramos un restaurante abierto que era realmente una granja con muchos animales corriendo alrededor y niños jugando con ellos. Super bien para los niños si decides caminar con ellos.
