Are you ready for the Swiss Far West adventure?? Then join us when
 

IAESTE GOES WEST!

Biking/riding & hiking in the Swiss Jura
on the 21st - 22nd of August 1999.









What about discovering a wild and wonderful region, far away from the tourists hordes? The "Free Mountains" (Franches-Montagnes / Freibergen), with their endless pine woods, green prairies and famous native horses are waiting for you!!

Imagine that: you spend the first afternoon either biking on pleasant roads in a wonderful landscape or riding one of those robust and good-natured native horses. You can then cool down by swimming in the "Etang de la Gruère", a very peculiar pond surrounded by pine trees and bilberry bushes.  In the evening, you enjoy a well deserved BBQ around a campfire. The next day, you follow your guide for a hike down the valley of the river "Doubs", in which the most courageous ones will dare a bath.
 
 

Sounds good to you?? So don't hesitate and go for it!!
 

CU there!  Matthias & Thierry (thmaeder@hotmail.com)
