Pyle Bridge

Highlight • Lake

The Pyle bridge is a monumental building 385 meters long and 65 meters high above water level. It spans Lake Vouglans and connects the towns of Maisod and Orgelet.

It is equipped with two sidewalks allowing pedestrians to cross it safely. And it's worth it as the view is clear. Spectacular panorama in perspective.

This fountain was renovated in 2004 by a craftsman from Orgelet, Elias Rodriguez. Now, the water falls into the round basin from a basin adorned with four sculptures: a woman's hand, a man's hand, an oak leaf, and a cascade.

"The whole, made of blue marble from Savoy, is very effective and deserves a stop"

This fountain was originally located on rue Royale, near a chapel. The location considerably hindered traffic on this narrow street.
In 1742, a notarial act indicates that the inhabitants of the village decide to replace the old wooden fountain with a cut stone construction. In an act dated 1770, it is decided to rebuild the fountain, at the current location, a place less detrimental to traffic and more convenient.

Ain Viewpoint

Highlight • Other

The impressive panorama of the Ain River at one of its widest points.
The Ain is a river full of fish where trout are caught. Many birds populate the banks of the river: ducks, egrets, swans, herons, snipes. Beavers are also present, particularly in the lower reaches (Lower Ain valley).
