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

Worth a visit to see the music room.

Very beautiful view of the Rhône and Fort l'Ecluse. Unfortunately, there is often stressful car traffic.

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.

The original castle was destroyed by the armies of Louis XI in 1477 and was rebuilt in 1565. The round tower was added in 1865.

This former house of the master of the Syam ironworks Jean-Emmanuel Jobez impresses with its incongruity. This castle, which is inspired by Italian culture, is also called Villa Palatina. Close to the forges, this building and the stables that go with it are however built at a good distance to avoid the noise pollution of the industrial steel site on the riverbank. This place is surprising in the heart of the Jura. Although the residence is private property, the rooms on the ground floor and the important library on the top floor are open to visitors. The stables host various events.

The hike is very pleasant for the view and the variety of landscapes. The unevenness, fairly constant, does not pose any particular difficulty. In sunny weather or with the morning mists, it's a treat!
