The Creux du Van is a spectacular natural rock arena, formed by centuries of erosion and glaciation. From this particular vantage point, the enormity and grandeur of this arena is before you. You'll also enjoy stunning views of the Jura mountains and Alpine flora, and have the chance to spot wildlife, such as ibex and chamois. If you run the Creux du Van, you absolutely must visit this viewpoint to appreciate its true value.
