Source de la Loue

Gushing out of a cavern 60 m wide and 30 m high carved into an overhanging wall over 100 m high, the source of the Loue is none other than a majestic resurgence of the Doubs. Magic and grandeur reign over this "reculée" (enclosed cirque). It's one of the Doubs' major natural sites, laid out and decorated with educational panels to help you better understand the natural spectacle before you. From the source, the path leads down the deep gorges of the Loue on the left bank to reach the power station and then the village of Mouthier-Haute-Pierre (6km - approx. 2 hours).

Access by car via the R.D. 41 leading to Ouhans, from the R.N. 67, then before Ouhans, take the Route de la Source or, for pedestrians, the picturesque G.R. 595 overlooking the Gorges de Noailles on the right bank (2 km).
