How it works
A single booking for your whole trek
Terre du Jura brings together the accommodation along the routes of the Jura Mountains on a single platform. You choose a route and your dates, we take care of the rest: availability, alternatives and payment.
The problem
Planning a multi-day trek is often a headache
One call per stage
Four, six, ten places to contact one by one, often at mealtimes, sometimes with no answer.
Availability to line up
The lodge for the third night is full? Then the whole trip has to shift, and everyone already booked has to be called again.
Just as many payments
A deposit cheque here, a bank transfer there: it's hard to keep track of what's been paid.
Our answer
Every stage, booked in a few minutes
One search for the whole trip
Enter a start date and the number of walkers: every night is checked with the accommodation on that stage, synced calendars included.
Alternatives, not dead ends
If somewhere is full, we suggest the other partners on the same stage. You put your trip together freely, night by night.
One secure payment
You pay the deposits for all your accommodation in one go. Each host receives their share straight into their account.
Everything in one email
Confirmation, each host's contact details, arrival times and a link to manage or cancel your trip.
Transparency
Where does your money go?
Your online payment is split automatically by our payment provider, Stripe. We keep only our service fee: the deposits belong to the hosts.
Paid directly to each host, into their own account, at the percentage they have chosen.
€3.00 per night per person, to keep the platform running.
The balance for the night, meals, extras and tourist tax are paid directly to the host, as usual.
Example: for 2 people and 4 nights, the service fee comes to €24.00, shown before you pay.
Our commitments
A platform from the Jura, for the Jura
Working for local hosts
Independent hikers' lodges, mountain huts, inns and B&Bs across the Jura. No commission is taken on their overnight stays.
Clear fees
Our only income is a service fee shown before you pay. No hidden extras, no mark-up on the hosts' prices.
Slow travel
Travelling on foot, on snowshoes or by bike from one village to the next, and supporting the economy of mountain communities.
On both sides of the border
The Jura Mountains don't stop at customs: the routes link France and Switzerland.
