From Vosges to Jura

From Ballon d'Alsace (Vosges) to Culoz (Ain)

Chemins de Grandes Randonnees

The GR®59 trail begins at Ballon d’Alsace, standing at an altitude of 1,247 meters. It traverses the regions of Haute-Saône and Doubs, where picturesque villages and historic castles adorn the path. The trail then continues into the Jura, a region celebrated for its stunning natural landscapes, including waterfalls and caves. Upon entering Savoie, the GR®59 offers breathtaking views of the Alps. Finally, the path leads to Ain, where the rugged mountains gradually transition into softer, rolling hills. Hikers will conclude their journey in Culoz, a charming village nestled at the foot of the Grand Colombier.
