シャティヨン-アン-ミッシェル周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

Very nice via ferrata. A beautiful historical site to visit when open.

The Col de Bérentin connects the Valserine Valley to the Retord Plateau, passing through the beautiful Jura forests. Its ascent is gradual and the road is little traveled.

Formerly called Fort de la Cluse (which means close in old French), this impressive military site was significantly remodeled in 1830. It was in fact during this period that the remains of the old fortified castle of the lords of Gex which dated from the 13th century to build a more modern fort. It is now a military museum open for tours.

Second pass for today. Pass elevation 1144 m above sea level. Long climb, basically from Saint Germain to here. A total of about 700 m elevation gain and 12 km. The gradient is only 4-6%, but with 20 kg of luggage, everything is difficult ;) Here, too, the weather was still quite cool in very early April. Partly rain, partly windy.

Rest after a 12 km climb from Saint-Germain-de-Joux.

A fantastic panorama of Mont Blanc and all the Alps 🤩. The course is great for the start of the season and a little meal at Lisa's with lots of kindness

Slightly difficult to access but not to be missed

The Valserine dug deep gorges in the limestone rock and bears witness to the power of nature. Deep potholes and ravines were cut into the rock until the river disappeared into a deep pothole.
