    Tips and suggestions

    Before setting off, we advise you to read the section Advice for hikers, equip yourself properly, wear a helmet, check the condition of your bike, bring supplies and repair equipment (puncture kit, quick link, hex keys…), check the weather forecast and take a charged phone. In any case, do not overestimate your strength and do not embark on a trail that is too technical for you. Know when to give up, turn back or get off your bike.

    In the Jura, mountain biking trails use paths and trails on private property that may also be used for other activities. Please respect the area by staying on marked trails and respecting other users who have priority (hikers, mountain bikers, riders, but also forestry workers, winegrowers, shepherds…). It is therefore necessary to adapt and control your speed.

    The Jura is a natural and wild department, please respect the environment in which you move: Do not litter, do not make fires, do not pick wildflowers. Respect the peace of livestock and wildlife by staying away from herds, keeping your dog on a leash and closing gates behind you. Check information about biotope protection zones, nature reserves, or Natura 2000 areas where restrictions apply.

    In case of forestry work (logging, logging…), trail work (trail restoration, clearing…), or ongoing or driven hunting areas for your safety, know when to give up and turn back.

    Roadbook

    The route makes a loop through the communal forest of Champagnole passing through the village of Sapois. There, it is possible to take mountain bike circuit number 62 which explores the exceptional Ain valley between Champagnole and Sirod. The fast-flowing river waters weave between the rocks, then disappear into the depths to reappear further on, still just as wild: a spectacle not to be missed.

    However, note that this detour adds about 10 km to the route.
