Mill of which we find traces from the 15th century which has had the name of Laval mill and Fauvel mill throughout its history. There were then several buildings there. The flour mill was destroyed after a fire in 1989. The sawmill, which still exists, closed in 1988 then was restored in 2016 following its inclusion in the historic monuments two years earlier. Only the transmissions are still there, the rest of the equipment having been dismantled when it closed. The adjoining house which accommodated the owners is today a gîte.

If you are looking for a historic and picturesque hike in the Doubs, you can visit the Sainte-Radegonde de Loray chapel. This chapel was built in 1541 and was a place of pilgrimage for people with walking difficulties. It is said that Sainte-Radegonde, former queen of the Franks, fought and defeated a ghoul there. The chapel is located near the Roche Barchey, a rock formation with a deep pit that was believed to be a gate to hell. You can enjoy the panoramic view from the Roche Barchey belvedere and see the traces of an ancient castle nearby.

If you are looking for a scenic hike in the Jura Massif, you can head to the Roche Barchey Viewpoint. It is a rock formation pierced in its center, hence its name (Roche Barchey means “pierced rock” in Celtic). From the top of the rock, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Val de Vennes and the Haut Doubs, as well as the chapel of Sainte-Radegonde and the Lomont mountains in the distance.

Whether you visit the waterfall in full flow or not, this circus has something to offer. The deafening roar of flowing water contrasts with the majesty and serene tranquility of the circus in times of drought.

Sometimes the waterfall is dry, like September 2022, but the surroundings are still beautiful! You should like to scramble.

Thanks to the community, my husband and I discovered this lovely little place this afternoon. Very easy walk with a magnificent arrival on the porch of the Great Grotto. The recent rains allowed a beautiful activity of 3 waterfalls.
