Tips from the Community
Bolandoz is a small, typical village in France-Comté. While passing there, remember to stop in front of the old wash house. Benches sheltered from the sun (or rain) are there, and can therefore represent a nice spot for a picnic. The small chapels at the entrance and exit of the village are also worth a look. At the exit (direction Montmahoux) don't miss the aptly named Notre-Dame des Aventures.

The belvedere of the black gouille overlooks the Canyon of Amondans whose top of the cliffs can be seen. It takes its name from the very deep hole (with black water) dug by the great waterfall of the Canyon d'Amondans where the Malans stream flows, which I throw into the Loue that you can see on the left.

The Mont-Calvaire is a hill of Sombacour which entered the historical heritage thanks to its way of the cross punctuated by 14 stations. These stations are small buildings topped with a cross and commemorating the passion of Christ. In addition to the religious aspect of the place, the hill is also conducive to good vertical kilometer training for trail enthusiasts. Also, the view from the top is superb.

it seems to be widespread in the Jura to shut off the water flow through a faucet. If necessary, you can press and then the water runs for a while.

The Adhuy waterfall is not the most spectacular in the region but is nevertheless of great interest. Geological at first, the Adhuy is a fine example of tufière (typical rock formation of the Jura made of calcareous tuff). Then, if it flows along the wall, like a real curtain, the Adhuy also offers a beautiful icefall in winter. In summer, you will take pleasure in hanging your head down before leaving. Refreshing.
