The Ognon crossing at Pont-sur-l'Ognon offers a scenic and serene experience for cycle tourists. As you cycle, take time to enjoy the tranquil atmosphere, with the sound of the river flowing below and the birds singing in the trees.

Start of the climb towards the Planche des Belles Filles: approximately 7 km to the summit, i.e. the Super Planche, at ~8.5% average. And it starts strong from the start...

Great hotel, especially for festive occasions. Occasionally visits possible for an admission fee.

This is where the climb to the Planche des belles filles begins - to the left we continue towards Ballon de Servance and to the right we go straight up the mountain to the beautiful dead end at the summit.
