As you climb up to the Belvédère du Cirque de Ladoye, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views of limestone cliffs and lush valleys. The climb is tough, but the breathtaking scenery is worth every pedal stroke. Stop at the viewpoint to soak up the view and snap some photos. Enjoy the moment before continuing on through this magnificent landscape.

Quite a nice place, just the main street through the old town is a shame.

The information board explains the cycle path: This road is one of the 5 roads in the Jura cycle path network. It connects Dole with Lons-le-Saunier, the EuroVelo 6 with the "voie Bressane", through an old railway line that crosses the "plaine du Finage" in the north and the "Bresse jurassienne" in the south. It's really wonderful to cycle on - it's like flying over the landscape or meditating! The old train stations that have been preserved are beautiful.

This portion of the Tour du Jura winds through the middle of the Revermont vineyards. These wines are sold under the A.O.C Vin du Bugey or IGP Coteaux de l’Ain – Revermont and enjoy a fine reputation.
