The footpaths in Switzerland are very well marked with yellow signs and yellow diamond-shaped markers.
(S/E) Follow the railway line on the left towards Le Champ du Moulin, following the yellow diamond markings. Follow the trail that runs along the mountain to Champ du Moulin. After half an hour, you will come to a viewpoint offering magnificent views and the opportunity to picnic in the hut. Don't hesitate to look back to see Lake Neuchâtel. If you are lucky and keep your eyes peeled, you may spot some chamois!
