    Tips

    Well-deserved arrival at 1200m at Vieux Châteleu and its typical inn of the region, especially when coming from Grand-Combe Châteleu via Les Gras because it climbs steeply.
    It is possible to climb (on foot) to Mont Châteleu which peaks at 1301m and offers an incredible panorama of the surrounding area.

    History has also marked this place, because it was the starting point of the numerous crossings of the Franco-Swiss border by the resistance fighter Michel Hollard with the aim of bringing information to the Allies.
