This road makes the transition between the plateau and the Dessoubre valley. So, in the direction of descent, you can enjoy superb views of the river.

The castle, which is now private, is worth a look for its neo-classical architecture and its French gardens which contrast with the more rustic style of the villages of Haut-Doubs.

The viewpoint is at an altitude of 700 meters above sea level. Here you have a very nice view of the small Dessoubre valley and far away on the Doubs Valley at Saint Hippolyte.
