The white winter setting comes with a decidedly Nordic atmosphere. The Espace Nordique Jurassien covers a mutitude of ski areas and trails on which cross-country skiing is the star discipline. Enthusiasts will follow the Grande Traversée du Jura trail, and perhaps watch or participate in the Transjurasienne cross-country skiing race. The Nordic spirit is about other activities too, such as snowshoeing, dog-sledding, biathlon and sledging. Here's a quick overview.
In compliance with government guidelines, the Nordic sites of the Jura Mountains are now open.
