September 24, 2023, Chateau de Reaumont

If you are looking for a historic and picturesque hike, you can visit the ruins of the Reaumont castle in Bélieu, a commune in the Doubs department of France. The castle was built in the 14th century by Henry de Montfaucon, a nobleman who became the Count of Montbéliard. It was destroyed in 1639 by the troops of Louis XIII during the Thirty Years' War. We can still see the remains of the walls, towers and moats that defended this medieval fortress. The castle is located at an altitude of around 1000 meters and offers panoramic views of the valley below.

The Étang des Tourbières in Noël-Cerneux is home to forests, lakes and peat bogs which are themselves home to rare and endangered fauna. You can enjoy the panoramic views and the artistic inspiration of the painter Émile Isenbart, fascinated by the Noël-Cerneux peat bogs.
