From Montbovon station, a pleasant one hour loop, ideal for children, allows you to follow the banks of the artificial lake of Lessoc.

Between meadows, forests and mountains, the path invites you to stroll and offers beautiful meetings with swans, ducks or cormorants. We also discover superb historic bridges, including the oldest date of 1578.

Bonus gourmand : Along the way, a stop at the gourmet space in Villars-sous-Mont allows you to get full of energy: double-crème meringues, fondue in Vacherin (manufactured by the owner of the establishment!) And Macaronis du Chalet fill all the desires.

On the way to gourmet space!
