Picturesque cornice road which connects the Maîche plateau to the pretty village of Goumois, called the “Franco-Swiss pearl of the Doubs valley”, which is crossed by the Doubs-border. Don't forget to take a look around, the view is magnificent.
For the record, Jean-Jacques Rousseau came to Goumois in the 18th century, notably for his botanical activities and his creation of herbaria.

On the Corniche de Goumois you have a wonderful view of the deep valley with the meandering Doubs. The Corniche is on the way up to the Col de la Vierge. But even on the varied descent is worth a stop to enjoy the view.
