The Crêt du Nu / Retord Plateau

An easy loop along Retord Plateau taking you past the "Gouffre de la Bauche" sinkhole and the "Crêt du Nu" viewpoint.
Grand Colombier cross

A summit and vistas in a site dominated by pastures.
La Dôle from Les Dappes
Departure from Prémanon (39 - Jura)
Without doubt, the shortest path up to the summit of La Dôle (1677m altitude) from the French side of the border. In good weather, the views are breathtaking and go on for over 250km: from the Swiss Alps to Mont Blanc and on to the Vanoise and the Ecrins, all of this with plunging views down over Geneva and its lake.
Val du Fier viewpoint from Chavanne d'en Bas
Departure from Val-de-Fier (74 - Haute-Savoie)
Nice looped hiking trail mostly in the undergrowth where you can see pretty views like Val du Fier's canyon, the river Rhône downstream Seyssel or the lovely ruined Saint André's chapel overlooking Albanais' plains.
Les cascades du Hérisson / The Hérisson (Hedgehog) Waterfalls
Departure from La Chaux-du-Dombief (39 - Jura)
The walk descends the Hérisson ('hedgehog') River with its series of rapids and waterfalls, then returns via Bonlieu, passing through the Dame Blanche viewpoint, with a panoramic view over lakes Val and Chambly and the Herisson valley.
