The Col de Bise, located on the GR 5, is the passage to switch from the Novel valley to that of Bise to the south. Perched at an altitude of 1,915 meters, it constitutes an unrivaled observation post for admiring Lake Geneva and the balconies of the Jura.

The composition of this painting is wonderful: lake in the foreground with high-altitude lawns, cliffs in the background, followed by a small window onto Lake Geneva. The Jura bar closes the horizon behind this magnificent landscape.

Highly Recommended!!!! Best to start early. Sturdy shoes are an absolute must here! Nordic walking sticks are highly recommended, especially for the descent 👊🙃👍
