Route Details
VD-Ropraz - Les 6 Ponts
C’est au parking de Ropraz, village rendu célèbre par l’écrivain Jacques Chessex, que démarre cette randonnée entièrement balisée.
En sortant de la localité, vous passez près du cimetière pour atteindre à une centaine de mètres une place de pique-nique.
Vous plongez ensuite dans la forêt et retrouvez rapidement le premier pont de bois qui traverse le ruisseau de Corcelles.
Vous poursuivez ainsi, de pont en pont en direction d’Hermenches. Après le 4e pont, votre route vous emmène au lieu-dit « Landerons », point culminant et panorama à couper le souffle sur les Alpes et les Préalpes.
A Hermenches, vous découvrez les fermes vaudoises typiques le long d’une rue principale ainsi qu’une jolie fontaine couverte, la « fontaine de la Chapelle », inaugurée en 2018.
Retrouvez la vallée boisée de la Bressonne pour enjamber le 5e pont.
Vous atteignez tour à tour La Râpe puis Vucherens et sa chapelle datant de 1737 - classée monument historique.
La balade se termine à Ropraz, où vous avez amplement mérité une fondue au Café de la Poste.

About the Calorie Calculator
Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.
When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.
Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
