Hiking

If you are looking for a hiking adventure in the Jura mountains, you should visit the Refuge Arrête des Sommetres. Located on a rocky ridge overlooking a superb cliff, this refuge offers a panoramic view of the Jura mountain range, the Doubs valley, the Vosges and the Black Forest. It is open all year round, without reservation, and has 7 beds, a stove, toilets and a rainwater tank. The refuge is a privileged place to experience the alpine atmosphere of the Jura.

Very cool place to stay overnight, but you have to register beforehand and make a small contribution, which is totally fine.

This refuge is described as the most alpine in the entire Jura chain, which is not an exaggeration given the altitude, the simple and extremely comfortable furnishings and the view of the cliffs. The water comes from a cistern and should be boiled before use.
