If you are looking for a scenic hike in the Jura Massif, you can head to the Roche Barchey Viewpoint. It is a rock formation pierced in its center, hence its name (Roche Barchey means “pierced rock” in Celtic). From the top of the rock, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Val de Vennes and the Haut Doubs, as well as the chapel of Sainte-Radegonde and the Lomont mountains in the distance.
