The tranquil village of Le Pont on the shores of Lac de Joux is always worth a visit. Make yourself comfortable on the shore of the largest lake in the Jura Mountains, or find a nice restaurant to round off your day of hiking – or better yet, both.

Le Pont

Highlight • Settlement

Pretty village to the north of Lac de Joux, right on the water's edge with its boats and its beach. Note that it is one of the rare places in the heart of the Jura that is sheltered from the north winds.
