jura mountain

The south-east part of the Jura is the highest with medium mountain. The mountain range is 1,500 m at its highest point and is made up of sharp reliefs notched with valleys, coombs, lakes and majestic gorges. With its grandiose views, spellbinding forests and sparkling snow, it's paradise for all enthusiasts of cross country skiing, competitive mountain biking and organised rambles on foot.

To the north the terrain softens as the rivers quieten down and the fresher green of the deciduous trees speckles the dark green of the firs. Vineyards carpet the golden hills of Revermont. Oak groves take the place of the Bresse farmland spangled with lakes and criss-crossed by bashful streams.

It's a Jura marked with poetry and softness which stretches towards the west to meet its neighbour, Burgundy.
