Vallorbe is situated at the foot of the Jura Massif within the Jura Vaudois Nature Park. The village is situated in a basin of the Orbe River. Callorbe is known for the stalactite cave "Grotte de l'Orbe", about one km long, which is open to visitors. In the village there is a railroad museum "Maison Cailler", which houses one of the largest collections of historical locomotives and wagons in Switzerland. In summer, you can hike perfectly on the surrounding Jura heights. The Cascade du Day waterfall is a popular hiking destination.

“The castle was much bigger inside than expected, with amazing history and stunning artefacts. It was a great time of year to visit, not too crowded, and the whole experience was interesting. Walking where people walked hundreds of years ago felt humbling.”
“What a great museum. Full of so much history. The medals, the torches, the sports kit. Soooo cool”
“Great. We thought we would spend 1.5 to 2 hours with my 4-year-old daughter, but we ended up staying all afternoon.”
“Really great visit, well organized and interesting.”
“An immersive exhibition that touches the soul. Every detail has been thoughtfully crafted, staying true to Chaplin's humanism. You feel connected to his world from the moment the film starts at the cinema, before gradually exploring each theme of his vast body of work. A body of work that rises above human foolishness through laughter, poetry, beauty, dreams, and unconditional love. Universal.”
“Diverse, flexible and always entertaining.”
