A unique promontory combining a place of worship and an exceptional panorama over the Val de Vennes and even the Jungfrau, a peak of over 4000m in the Bernese Alps in Switzerland!

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.

If you are looking for a historic and picturesque hike, you can visit the ruins of the Reaumont castle in Bélieu, a commune in the Doubs department of France. The castle was built in the 14th century by Henry de Montfaucon, a nobleman who became the Count of Montbéliard. It was destroyed in 1639 by the troops of Louis XIII during the Thirty Years' War. We can still see the remains of the walls, towers and moats that defended this medieval fortress. The castle is located at an altitude of around 1000 meters and offers panoramic views of the valley below.
