Just back from two days on the Swiss Camino. I started in Romont and ended in Lausanne. I saw some stunning countryside, visited some peaceful churches, stayed in a friendly hotel and enjoyed a fun Christmas market in Lausanne.... all within two days.
Tips:
1) Swiss Mobility App is a must. It led me through villages and forests and kept me on the trail (which I would have missed a few times if I hadn't constantly checked my bearings)
2) Get a pilgerpass (Pilgrim pass) if you enjoy collecting stamps from churches along the way
3) Sturdy, comfortable shoes
4) Don't overpack
5) Check weather forecasts before you go
6) Check Jakobsweg websites and tourism websites for accomodation and tips
7) Don't forget to visit some sites along the way
Buen Camino!
Have you ever done the Swiss Camino? What have been your experiences?
Good for you. No, not done it. But here is a map - with explanation in French

I have done part of the Via Francigena in Tuscany- the middle part of the ancient route from Rome to Canterbury- which passes through the Swiss Jura too.
Here, in English, South/North route
