Located in the heart of the Vaud Jura, between the Col du Marchairuz and the vast wooded pastures that characterise the massif, the Combe des Amburnex offers an exceptional natural setting. Nestled at over 1,300 metres above sea level, it is one of the region’s major Nordic sites, featuring a well-maintained network of cross-country ski routes accessible to all levels.
In addition to Nordic skiing, the area offers a varied winter activity programme. Several marked snowshoe trails allow visitors to explore the Jura landscapes at their own pace, while sledging runs provide a fun and accessible activity for families.
