몬틀본‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪12‬개의 협곡

Just a few hundred meters from the edge of the village is the entrance (or, coming from the other direction, the exit) of the Poëta Raisse Gorge. It can be visited and hiked free of charge. There are a few parking spaces, a large log cabin for picnics, and a signpost.

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.

From Noiraigue, the last section of the hiking trail leads over these 14 curves (Sentier des 14 Contours). The climb is definitely worth it; the view over the Creux du Van is breathtaking.

Cool places

These are not 14 contours, but 14 hairpin bends. The path is steep, but attractive.

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.

Take the hike all the way up. The nature is beautiful with beautiful trails!
