Beautiful asphalted railway cycle path from Chaussin to Molay. Bridge over the Doubs, beautiful landscape overall.

This section runs alongside the Rhine-Rhône Canal and is part of the EuroVelo 6 route. The canal's lively atmosphere is delightful. The cycle path is well-maintained and the setting is very pleasant.
