The Baume-les-Messieurs cave was first explored by Paul Vernier in 1610, but he only explored the first quarter of the cave. It wasn't until more than two centuries later, in 1893, that exploration resumed, thanks in part to the French speleologist Alfred Martel (who discovered the Gouffre de Padirac). The first guided tours took place at the beginning of the 20th century, around 1903.

Beautiful viewpoint "Roches de Baume" with views from the plateau into the valley and as far as Baume-les-Messieurs.

Located at the end of the Baume-les-Messieurs valley, one of the most famous in the Jura, the waterfall is remarkable for many reasons. Its water originates from the underground river, the Dard, which emerges from the earth after a turbulent journey through the caves. The water that gushes forth here is pure and crystal-clear, emerging from a bright, green setting, creating magnificent colors.

Impressive and beautiful, the still young Dard flows over this majestic tuff waterfall.

The Cirque de Baume-les-Messieurs, a marvel of limestone, offers impressive views of towering cliffs and lush vegetation.

Around Lake Vouglans, the forest mixes with Jura geology marked by cliffs and rock. This gives rise to rock formations navigating in a universe that is both mineral and vegetal.

The Baume-les-Messieurs tuff waterfall is one of the most beautiful in France, and it is the most famous in the Jura. Its raised rocks, typical of tuff waterfalls, have created this totally natural treasure.
