A shelter restored by an association, open to walkers. outside there is a bench and a small orientation table, with a beautiful view of the Ain valley. No possibility of sleeping, just to protect yourself from the rain.

June 18, 2025,Auf perfekten Fahrradwegen zum Lac de Chalain
Today we're riding almost exclusively on newly constructed bike paths, partly on a former railway line; and through the wonderful green landscape, perfect!
Our destination is Lac Chaleine – the largest natural lake in the Jura. On the southern shore, you'll find shady swimming spots and picnic benches where you can comfortably bear the heat.
