View from the bridge.

A few small shops, a nice stopover

beautiful pass, quite rolling especially through St Germain de Joux, a little tougher on the Saint Claude side. lots of writing on the ground since the Tour de France passed through.

A 10 km climb from the small roundabout in Châtillon, it's more like 14 km from the Nantua road or the center of Bellegarde. The gradient is fairly steady, ranging from 5.5% to 7.2%, with about ten small steep sections at +8.5%. Very quiet, with very few cars. The road is generally in good condition, but nothing more. There are some beautiful views along the way.

This boundary stone marked the border between Franche-Comté (north) and French Bugey (south). To the east, the Pays de Gex was separated by the Sardinian Corridor, in which the Spanish Way was located.

Fantastic campsite. Clean, quiet, and well located.

This glacial lake, backed by limestone cliffs, is sometimes sapphire in color, sometimes emerald - Alexandre Dumas wrote in his book Impression de voyage in 1834: "This pretty little sapphire blue lake, set like a jewel, that nature would fear to lose."

Nestled in the Semine Valley, Saint-Germain-de-Joux offers a preserved natural setting. Don't miss the giant's cauldrons, these rock formations carved by water, accessible from the village.
