The highest point of the Larmont mountain range, the Grand Taureau, at an altitude of 1,323 m, offers panoramic views of the Alps. An orientation table helps you better decipher the landscape. For hikers, multiple trails cross this area.

This path along the edge of fields and the forest leading to Cornabey is very pleasant. You cross a small bridge to span the stream.

The complex is impressive even from the outside and, despite its 1,000-year-old and eventful history, is still in good condition. It has been continuously modernized to accommodate the latest military and artillery technologies.
