View of the Doubs' Horseshoe Bend

Highlight • Viewpoint

All along the path that borders the Doubs, you can admire the preserved landscape in the gorges. Here, the loop, the horseshoe, formed by the lace of the Doubs is one of the most famous viewpoints in this sector.

Châtelot Dam

Highlight • Monument

The Châtelot dam, 74 meters high, was built in 1953. The use of the valley and the rock gives it a spectacular character. It's a fantastic place to see, especially when the water is flowing over the dam!

From the Saut-du-Doubs to the Châtelot – a hike between waterfalls and hiking bliss

Let's go! – very close to the Saut-du-Doubs restaurant. A hike awaits. And what a hike it is 😉

The first section of the trail takes me through a wonderfully peaceful forest, gently up and down. Then…
