샤펠 데 부아‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪12‬개의 호수

Bikepacking trip with a night bivouac on the shores of Lac des Rousses, beach side. Very windy at night, so wrap up warm. Otherwise, a magnificent lake with few people (early August).

A very nice border village to relax in after a bike ride (from Geneva in our case). We spent the afternoon and a night camping near the lake. Shops nearby for supplies 👍

This site is magnificent and the footbridge allowed us to complete a very pleasant hike.

Excellent first day with lots of climbing - Col de la Combe Blanche, Col de l'Aiguillon and a third smaller col between them. The views are wonderful and no cars on most sections with a few road parts that were not very busy.

It is a typical Jura village. It benefits from a lot of sporting and cultural activities. It is the starting point for many hikes. It is located on the route of the Grande Traversée du Jura or GTJ (https://www.gtj.asso.fr/). To be discovered in all seasons, whether on foot, by bike, by mountain bike, by snowshoes or by ski.

Warning (15/08/2023)! The footbridge is temporarily closed (cable break). It is however possible to cross below by the large rocks. This remains a delicate passage.

A glacial overflow, this lake is surrounded by bogs. It freezes in winter, which makes it possible to go ice skating!

The village of Les Rousses, in addition to the village and Fort des Rousses, is also a cross-country and alpine ski resort. It is close to a Swiss border lake with the same name: Lac des Rousses.
