Lake Vouglans offers an ideal playground for outdoor sports enthusiasts.
This 86km route is designed for experienced mountain bikers. It is quite hilly and features numerous technical trails, with a well-balanced mix of surface types (woodland, scree, roots…) and trail types (singletrack, footpaths, dirt tracks…).
This route is signposted as a major mountain bike route (red ‘VTT’ symbol on a white background, with the letters ‘TLV’).

Departure from Moirans-en-Montagne (Jura)
Thisfirst stage, starting from Moirans-en-Montagne, takes you up to higher ground with a superb view of Lake Coiselet and, ultimately, a peak and a castle that are well worth the detour. Indeed, the Pic d’Oliferne towers over the Ain Valley by almost 500 metres and offers a beautiful view, particularly of the Haute-Chaîne du Jura.

Departure from Villards-d'Héria (Jura)
Do you want to connect with nature, admire its beauty at the slow pace of walking, walk to get to know yourself better, get back to basics, and push yourself to new limits? Set off on an adventure along the Camino de Santiago. That’s what I’m offering you with this route. I set off from my village in the Jura (the first six stages aren’t part of the signposted routes of the Camino de Santiago) to reach Santiago de Compostela in Spain, but there’s nothing to stop you setting off from your own home to join the route at one of the stages, or starting from Le Puy-en-Velay or any other town along the way..

Starting from Montbrillant, a steady climb up to Septmoncel via the Chemin des Moines, the reward being three viewpoints: two with aerial views of the town of Saint-Claude, and the third overlooking La Roche Blanche.
The paths are very easy to walk on, with no technical difficulties.
