At the foot of this statue of the Virgin Mary overlooking the village of Montarlot-lès-Champlette, there is a bench that offers a beautiful view of Champlitte and its surroundings, as well as the Jura and the Alps. The statue is located along the Sentier des Chèvres, a pretty single-track passage along the edge of the hill (very nice for mountain biking!).
