It's technical mostly due to the loose stones and the steepness, it's a bit narrow as well, but nothing too dangerous, no big steps or roots. If you'd rather avoid it, take the next downhill with more zig zags, less steepness, just about a hundred meters West.

Chamois field

Highlight • Natural

This beautiful field is a nice and ludic ride, mostly smooth and not technical (unless muddy), and it's a great place to see closely the nonchalant chamois who feed here a good part of the year.

Lac de Joux

Highlight • Lake

Beautiful mountain lake in the Jura. Can be cycled around by bike. With me there was unfortunately torrential rain, the circumnavigation I had to cancel.
