Departure from Cléron (Doubs)
From Cléron Castle, through a beautiful, cool forest alternating between fir and deciduous trees, ideal for a hot summer's day, you will visit the gentle monk Toum Tatre, a monolith resembling a tonsured Capuchin monk, watching piously over the Norvaux valley from the top of his cliff. Walking along the ledges of the twin valley of Valbois, you will return via Castel Saint-Denis, overlooking the valley from its rocky spur.

A touch of holiday spirit as you take the train. A varied route passing through the Marais de Saône (information about the marsh), exploring the Creux sous Roche, and the Notre-Dame de la Libération viewpoint.

Departure from La Chapelle-sur-Furieuse (Jura)
Sixth stage from the Jura to Hauts-de-France via the Francigena: for this long stage, which features less elevation gain, you set off from La Chapelle-sur-Furieuse and, passing through forests, vineyards and meadows, you’ll reach Port-Lesney. From the Vieux-Pont in Port-Lesney, you’ll climb along beautiful forest paths winding through boxwood groves towards the Hermitage of Notre-Dame-de-Lorette, perched on a sheer cliff overlooking the valley, before reaching the village of Arc-et-Senans and its Royal Saltworks, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1982. the Royal Saltworks of Arc-et-Senans is a former salt production facility, built on the initiative of King Louis XV between 1775 and 1779. This is followed by a forest trail leading you to Le Signal (467 m), the highest point of this stage. You then descend along beautiful, fairly undulating forest paths, with occasional views across the vast neighbouring state-owned forest, towards the Doubs valley.
