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.

One of the best spots with a clear view of the lake. Otherwise the trees are usually in front of it 🫣
