Magnificient Animals at the foot of Chasseral

The Bison farm is in Les Colisses du Bas, a good hour of walk from the final station of the bus climbing up from Biel to Pres d'Orvin/Le Grillong. Follow the walking trail and not the road, which unfortunately is very busy with people that prefer to climb the mountains in their 4*4! What a hassle! More on http://www.bisonranch.ch/

They are a magnificient animal - just a pity they are American bisons, and not the European ones. In their sizable flock under the Jura sapins at the foot of Chasseral, they make dream of the vast forests Europe has once been covered with. Not bad either: Bison terrine and home made bread!
