La Herzroute<\/strong>, also known as Route du C\u0153ur<\/strong> (itinerary 99<\/strong>), crosses Switzerland from Lausanne to Romanshorn<\/strong> on roads chosen for their scenic beauty and driving comfort, particularly popular in electric bike<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if you manage to Romont<\/strong>, it's rarely \u201cby chance\u201d: Romont is the finish of stage 1 Lausanne \u2192 Romont<\/strong>, It was a busy and magnificent day, and one that deserves to be recuperated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Romont: a real arrival, not just a break<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Lausanne - Romont<\/strong> displays approximately 51 km<\/strong> and a profile that can be felt in the legs (high cumulative climb).
This is exactly the kind of day when you want a simple plan:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • arrive<\/strong>, without asking 10 logistical questions<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • eat properly<\/strong>, without having to cycle or walk far<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • sleep peacefully<\/strong>, to leave clean the next day<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    \n\n\n\n

    At La Belle Croix: \u201carrive tired, leave clean\u201d.\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    \u00c0 La Belle Croix<\/strong>, we've designed the stage in Romont as a genuine reset<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1) Get a good night's sleep (real night's sleep, real recovery)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Our historic house (1862) was renovated between 2017 and 2019<\/strong>, We've kept the character and added modern comforts. We propose 18 rooms<\/strong>, With modern standards (including fibre) and smartphone access to rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2) Eating in (a luxury after a long stage)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    On the same site, you have restaurant + brasserie + bar<\/strong> No need to \u201cgo and find\u201d a table after 4 hours in the saddle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3) Easy parking (and simplified logistics)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    We have a private car park next to the establishment (18 spaces, with electric vehicle terminals).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n\n\n

    Our practical advice for a successful Herzroute stopover in Romont<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Here's what changes your next day (and what we see from cyclists who \u201cfinish strong\u201d on their route):<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Arrival<\/strong> Allow 15-20 minutes for a \u201cbuffer\u201d shower + a mini-check of the bike (tyre pressure, brakes, chain).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Dinner<\/strong> Avoid \u201ctoo heavy\u201d, but don't under-eat: a recovery stage without energy costs more than a good meal.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Sleep<\/strong> Your performance gains the next day will come mainly from this (not from an extra energy freeze).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      (If you're travelling by e-bike: let us know when you book, and we'll show you the simplest solution for your equipment).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
