Along the Vouglans lake, the path between the Surchauffant campsite and Pont-de-Poitte leads you from forests to cliffs. By following it, you will collect views of the lake and the Jura massif with its immense green expanses.

Moss-Covered Rocks in the Forest near Lac de Vouglans

Highlight • Forest

Around Lake Vouglans, the forest mixes with Jura geology marked by cliffs and rock. This gives rise to rock formations navigating in a universe that is both mineral and vegetal.

Quinquenouille Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

An impressive and beautiful site. Water falls in rain along an overhanging cliff. This gives it a little air of an "exotic" waterfall, such as one can find on Reunion Island for example.

Cascades of the Source of Doucier

Highlight • Waterfall

These waterfalls guarantee you a point of water and freshness on this panoramic path. Very pleasant especially when you know that this piece of trail runs along the lake without direct access.
