Going to the Saut du Doubs means leaping thousands of kilometers and feeling like you're in the middle of the Canadian canyons. The landscapes of this place are magnificent! This waterfall and its pools are classified as a major national site and are located on the border line between Switzerland and France. There are therefore two observation sites for the waterfall.

The Saut du Doubs is a 27-meter-high waterfall located along the Doubs River, which forms the border between France and Switzerland here. The waterfall is the result of a paleohistoric landslide that filled the narrow, gorge-like Doubs Valley, which cuts deep into the limestone formations of the Folded Jura, about 14,000 years ago.

Observation decks on both sides of the river. Below, where the shops are, there is a bridge to cross the river.
