Around the Reculée, hostile nature and beauty The site offers numerous vantage points to contemplate the Reculée. From the viewpoints or the bottom of the valley, from the surrounding villages, discover the beauty of a landscape that is testimony to the violence of the past. Here is a list of all the places you mustn't miss: The Belvédère du Cirque du Fer à Cheval:overlooking the valley 200 metres above, this spot offers a breathtaking view of the Reculée. The village of La Châtelaine: visit the feudal castle ruins and the belvédère de la Châtelaine viewpoint overlooking the villages of Les Planches and Mesnay and Saône plains beyond. La Roche du Feu: towering over the Cul du Bray where the Grand Mont stream runs. Gazing to the west, towards Arbois, nature gives way to humans. Vineyards, railway tracks and quarries are evidence of agricultural and industrial activities. Cul du Bray: this site offers visitors a series of gour pools and small cascades. Village of Les Planches-près-Arbois: you simply must not miss this village on the way to the major source of the Cuisance and the caves. You will be charmed by its traditional architecture and enchanting river. Cul des Forges: an untamed landscape containing the torrents of the Petite Cuisance, brimming with waterfalls and gour pools. The Cascade du Dérochoir: on the way back to Arbois along the bottom of the valley, one last detour via this waterfall will be the high point of your trip. The village of Arbois: its walls, the edges of the Cuisance and, most importantly, the home of Louis Pasteur. The Jura wine trail: accommodation in the heart of the vineyards, tasting the region's finest wines, tourist sites, museums, abbeys ... the heritage of the Jura. Discover it all year round! Grotte des Moidons: these caves, renowned for their stalactites, are open from April to September. |
