This former military enclosure, which protected the Franco-Swiss border, has successfully undergone a successful conversion. The fort houses a Comté maturing cellar. If the production of this AOP has its secrets, the cellar can indeed be visited. I too have a secret for you: the visit ends with a Comté tasting. So, convinced?

The Moutat peatlands form one of the most important peatlands in the region. These ecosystems contain an enormous quantity of CO2 thanks to their permanent humidity, hence the importance of protecting them. To raise public awareness of these environments while making them accessible, a wooden platform was installed so that they could walk on them without trampling on them.
