Jura tourism leads to Switzerland’s youngest canton, a quiet land of rolling pastures, forests and limestone cliffs in the north-west. It is known for the Franches-Montagnes plateau, where free-roaming horses graze beside wooden farmhouses, and for the Doubs river, which winds through deep gorges.Saint-Ursanne is a medieval walled town with a cloister and a stone bridge, while Porrentruy has a handsome castle. The region is far from the main tourist trail and suits slow travellers who enjoy cycling, walking and local food, from smoked sausage to Tête de Moine cheese. Visit between May and October, with a day or two in the area.

Take a train to Delémont and a regional line onward, about 1 hour 15 minutes in all. Roads are quiet and scenic if you drive.
