Departure from Chevenez (Canton of Jura)
This is a beautiful hike that has the advantage of being in Switzerland, where hunting is closed on Sundays.
The upper part of the route is on a wide ridge with sunny pastures and a picnic area with two tables.
There are a few viewpoints on the north side overlooking the L'Ajoie plain with the Vosges mountains in the background.
On the other side, you can see the Haut-Doubs and the Jura mountains, including the famous Chasseral.
In between, there is plenty of nature to enjoy, with a good portion of the walk taking place in the shade of the trees, which is very pleasant in hot weather.

Departure from Montjoie-le-Château (Doubs)
From the castle ruins, you will climb up to the ledges where, like tightrope walkers from one border marker to the next, you will walk along the ridge line, neither in France nor in Switzerland. You will reach the Réclère Caves, considered the most beautiful in the world by the first explorers in 1886. From Journey to the Centre of the Earth by Jules Verne to Conan Doyle's The Lost World, you will squeeze between dinosaur feet. The return journey, via the old farmhouse at Montavon, will be less adventurous.
