Nans-sous-Saint-Anne, a pretty village on the Lison

Highlight • Other

The village of Nans-sous-Sainte-Anne is remarkable for the scale of its landscapes, the rhythm of the mountains and depressions. It knows how to combine in a restricted space the charm of the foliage and the fir trees with the austerity of the rock walls, the impetuosity of the waterfalls with the intimacy of the undergrowth, the mystery of the caves with the picturesqueness of the belvederes.

Nans-sous-Sainte-Anne

Highlight • Settlement

There is so much to discover here:
Source du Lison
Cheese shop
Tallanderie
Climbing rocks
and the best of all: “a l'ombre du chateau”
A “Bed & Breakfast” that is absolutely extraordinary for me.
Simply fantastic, indescribable!

Montmahoux lookout

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the top of its 828 meters, the Montmahoux is a first choice perch to admire the Monts du Jura.
And in optimal conditions, expect to see Mont-Blanc looming over there, on the horizon.

Lison Spring

Highlight • Cave

At the source of the Lison, you will find a powerful waterfall, which never runs dry, a converted cave that you can enter and a turquoise blue swimming pool. All at the foot of a spectacular cliff.
You will reach it along a very passable little path, under the trees and along the Lison.

Nans-sous-Sainte-Anne

Highlight • Other

No reason not to stop at Nans-sous-Sainte-Anne. You will be given the opportunity to see an old water mill working with the waters of the Lison or even a Comtois bell tower.
An inn-restaurant serves good typical Franche-Comté cuisine. You can also stock up on cheese at the Lison dairy.
