On the heights of Fort des Rousses

Highlight • Historical Site

If the Fort des Rousses is a pleasant military structure to walk through, running on its heights by taking this path is just as pleasant. In addition to the fortifications, it is thus possible to admire the mountains overlooking the forest.
