The Saut du Doubs is a 27-meter-high waterfall located along the Doubs River, which forms the border between France and Switzerland here. The waterfall is the result of a paleohistoric landslide that filled the narrow, gorge-like Doubs Valley, which cuts deep into the limestone formations of the Folded Jura, about 14,000 years ago.

An interesting hiking experience to have two viewpoints 5m away and not be able to cross. The view is actually better on the French side 😉 The "Saut du Doubs" is a 27-meter-high waterfall on the Doubs, which is located on the French-Swiss border. During periods of flooding on the Doubs, kayak records have been set here for overcoming the waterfall.

If you're looking for a fun break from your run in the Swiss Jura, you can visit the Grotte de l'Ours, near Ponts-de-Martel. This is not a deep cave, but rather a large rock formation with several holes that you can explore. The cave is located in a beautiful little gorge, the Combe Poëta, and the path leading there is already an attraction in itself. You can admire the forest, streams and peat bogs all along the way.

Beautiful path along a ford, partly lined with rocks. Great views of the picturesque landscape on the Doubs.

The steep descent down from the dam of Lac de Moron leaves you in awe of this impressive structure.

A little change when circling Lac de Moron 👍🏻

Going to the Saut du Doubs means leaping thousands of kilometers and feeling like you're in the middle of the Canadian canyons. The landscapes of this place are magnificent! This waterfall and its pools are classified as a major national site and are located on the border line between Switzerland and France. There are therefore two observation sites for the waterfall.

Unfortunately in June 2022 when we were there there was no waterfall. The Doubs carried very little water. Pity!
