The Tallenay washhouse, built in the 19th century, once served the village's washerwomen. Fed by a spring, it is typical of the region's utilitarian architecture, with its gable roof and stone basins.

Perched north of Besançon, Châtillon-le-Duc overlooks the Ognon Valley from its rocky outcrop. Here you'll discover the remains of a former 19th-century military fort, built on the ruins of a feudal castle.

The grand lavoir-abreuvoir in Geneuille is a historical monument dating from the 19th century. It was built in 1829 and restored in 1876 by the architect Ducat. This lavoir-abreuvoir, located on the rue de l’Abreuvoir, is a covered washhouse with a large abreuvoir running along the facade. It has a large esplanade for easy access. The complex consists of a fountain, a washhouse and a abreuvoir, and is an important vestige of the social life and work of our ancestors. The water enters via a canal and is collected in a large space with a beautiful vaulted structure.

The sun will be your greatest ally during this passage. At first light, you will find magnificent plays of light between the trees. The same at dusk. In the fall, as the sun quickly sets, the trees become incandescent. Remember to turn around from time to time to discover the many views that the forest offers.

Beautiful gravel road on the old railway line slightly downhill from Les Auxons to Marnay (and vice versa slightly uphill).
