Nice view over the four lakes. Tip: a little further south is the viewpoint "three lakes". Much nicer view.

At the belvedere of the Three Lakes, you can enjoy a breathtaking panorama and discover a very special feature of these three lakes: their whitish surroundings. This "chalk mud" is a specific characteristic due to a chemical phenomenon between the chalk, which lines the bottom of the lakes, the depth, and the heat.

Highlight • Summit

At the summit of the Pic d'Aigle at an altitude of 993 meters, which is often also called Bec de l'Aigle, the whole of the Jura rises up at your feet. You can see the Ilay gorges which cross the heights of La Chaux-du-Dombief. On the left, you can see the Jura mountains behind which rises the summit of Mont Blanc in good weather. The plateaus above the Saône plain are also visible on the right.

Le Grand Saut

Highlight • Waterfall

The Grand Saut is the highest of the Hérisson waterfalls. The waters are projected in a free fall of 60 meters. It is also one of the most spectacular. This waterfall springs from the walls of the canyon in a kind of wide cirque. A truly impressive natural monument.
