Discover the village of Vaivre-et-Montoille, on the lakeside, and Chariez, a ‘Cité de Caractère’ in Franche-Comté. From the top of Camp de César, you can admire the plain and Lake Vesoul to the north and Chariez to the south.
As you walk through Chariez, you’ll discover its vineyards, historic houses and its listed church.
On the way back, enjoy the lake, its flora and fauna, boat trips, the beach and places to eat on either side.

I often do this route because it’s very close to home and I never tire of it. Le Camp de César and its view over the village of Chariez – everyone here knows the summit with its view of Montigny, Lake Vaivre-et-Montoille and La Motte de Vesoul – is truly the highlight of this route. It’s a shame because, whilst much of this route used to be signposted, very few traces of the markings remain now.
