    After 10 days of hiking on the Franco-Swiss Échappée Jurassienne, this transition stage allows hikers to reach the Land of lakes and waterfalls. En route, passing through the Conliège re-entrance and its incredible Hermitage overlooking the valley. Still on the GR, which winds like a balcony, hikers will soon reach the viewpoints of the Tilleuls and Guillotine, then the Premier Plateau with its pastures, farms, and small villages. After a beautiful stage of hiking, a short break in the village of Châtillon which overlooks the Ain valley and offers a glimpse of the first foothills of the Jura.

    Roadbook

    On the French side, the Échappée Jurassienne has specific waymarking, so you just need to follow the “J” on the signposts. Between the posts, you must follow the classic FFRandonnée waymarking signs, mainly the white and red GR® marks.

    On the Swiss side, the Échappée Jurassienne follows the GR5 up to Nyon, there is no specific waymarking so you just need to follow the corresponding “yellow” marks and absolutely equip yourself with an up-to-date map, GPS, or guide.
