    Mountain biking

    This is a spectacular fort standing high on a rocky spur. Worth a short detour for a visit if you are into your history. Initially built in wood in the 11th century, it was then rebuilt in stone in the 12th century. It has been a medieval castle, a border fortress, a state prison and then an artillery fort.

    Superb point of view, reward for a difficult climb by bike. View of the castle and the Cluse, and the Métabief ski slopes in the distance to the south.
