Tips
Mont d'Or does not dominate the Jura chain, but its 1,463 meters of altitude make it the highest point in the Doubs department.
Its position offers hikers superb and very clear views of the Suchet massif and the Dent de Vaulion, without forgetting of course the Alps. On a clear day, you can admire more than 300 alpine peaks, including the unique Mont Blanc.
The Mont d'Or is perfect for a picnic break, but like all the Jura peaks, it is very exposed to the wind. Don't hesitate to take a windbreaker with you.translated by
