Vegetation is not very exciting, like in Switzerland, in a normal forest. The only highlight is the Étang de Bonfol.

This pond is located in the forest. Several marked mountain bike trails pass there. The beautiful cabin with a facade made of birch logs is open permanently. It allows you to shelter there or take the snack out of the bag. A small barbecue is present.

Despite its transit character, it is a very nice route between Courtavon and Liebsdorf. Past the Etang of Courtavon and up through the forest and otherwise a lot of nature to the left and right of the route.
