Col du Châteleu (1,200 m)
Highlight • Mountain Pass
It is possible to climb (on foot) to Mont Châteleu which peaks at 1301m and offers an incredible panorama of the surrounding area.
History has also marked this place, because it was the starting point of the numerous crossings of the Franco-Swiss border by the resistance fighter Michel Hollard with the aim of bringing information to the Allies.
