The Hérisson waterfalls refer to a series of waterfalls that cause the waters of the Hérisson river to descend into the Ain. The waterfalls can be observed by a seven-kilometre path that starts from Menétrux-en-Joux.

Fan Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The Fan waterfall is undoubtedly the best known of the Hérisson waterfalls. Its height and stepped layout make it a very recognizable and rather unique waterfall. It has a secure platform that allows you to observe it without risk.
