along the Lison to Nant-Sous-Saint-Anne

Highlight • Other

the path is tough when it rained. A mountain bike is then an advantage - but beautiful views of the Lison with some cascades.

Impressive rock faces along the Lison

Highlight • Other

The valley is beautiful, the rock walls down to the road and... the Lison flows very quietly, without any fuss like the last few kilometers.

The Loue Valley - indescribable!

Unfortunately, we were not able to follow the river everywhere. This makes such atmospheres all the more beautiful.

I can only recommend the Lison and this route. Bathing in the Lison is normal for the French. I can't remember the last time I bathed in a river.

Nans-sous-Sainte-Anne

Highlight • Other

No reason not to stop at Nans-sous-Sainte-Anne. You will be given the opportunity to see an old water mill working with the waters of the Lison or even a Comtois …

There is so much to discover here:
Source du Lison
Cheese shop
Tallanderie
Climbing rocks
and the best of all: “a l'ombre du chateau”
A “Bed & Breakfast” that is absolutely extraordinary for me.
Simply fantastic, indescribable!

Nans-sous-Sainte-Anne

Highlight • Other

Nans-sous-Sainte-Anne is unique.
Beautifully secluded. Lots of opportunities, from climbing, cycling and hiking. And there's even a former Michelin-starred chef in the Chateâu. The cheese dairy is great and also has bread and wine.
It's a picture-perfect village.

Moderate Climb to Éternoz

Highlight • Climb

Chiao Nans-sous-Saint-Anne - now it's going uphill - up to Eternoz there were 6 vehicles that had overtaken me - so everything was okay
