The promontory offers a sublime panorama of the Roche Fauconnière cirque. The site has been classified as a “sensitive natural area” since 1936. The 150 meter high cliff dominates the Semine valley and faces the Orvaz valley.
The river has regained its tranquility here, its course is more peaceful. It is the colors of the water that change. This phenomenon is just as fascinating as the rapids seen previously.
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.
The place called Les Avalanches is located just before the steep descent that takes you towards the Valserine and the Rhône. It offers a beautiful view of the valley.
