The Lakes region, situated on the east side of Lons-le-Saunier, offers magnificent series of lakes with wooded shores. You can admire them from a number of easily-accessible viewpoints.

The four-lake viewpoint of the municipality of Le Frasnois, provides a magnificent view of the lakes of Grand Maclu, Petit Maclu, Ilay and Narlay. Because of the beauty of this site, notably in autumn when colours are gorgeous, this place was nicknamed Little Scotland. But the discovery of the magic landscapes of the Lakes region does not stop there: the lakes of Chalain, Clairvaux, Vouglans, Vernois, Val, Chambly and Bonlieu will amaze fans of lakes and natural scenery.
