The Crêt de la Neige offers the opportunity to contemplate the Jura massif from the highest point in the surrounding area. You will observe Lake Geneva and the Alps, during a fairly accessible and easy hike. On a clear day, you can see Mont Blanc!

The Crêt de la Neige is the highest peak in the Jura. On top you have a magnificent view over the Jura and the Alps. In clear weather a wonderful view of Mont Blanc (see photos).
