  • LE SENTIER DE LA RECULÉE DE CORVEISSIAT EST FERMÉ TEMPORAIREMENT (Arrêté municipal en pj), suite à des chutes d'arbres répétées (closure entre la passerelle de la reculée et les escaliers ves la grotte).

  • Emblematic of the Jura mountains, the reculées are worlds apart. Setting off along this path and coming face to face with this imposing porch is always spectacular, or following this torrent down to the Rivière d'Ain amidst the moss remains magical.
