The Jura Walking Holidays

The Jura arcs north of the Alps in limestone steps: vine-covered Revermont foothills first, then forests, turquoise lakes and summits looking across to Mont Blanc. Its reculees, blind gorges ending in cliffs and waterfalls, shelter Baume-les-Messieurs and its abbey. This was the first French wine region to be given an appellation, in 1936, and vin jaune tastes like nothing else. Comte and Arbois complete the picture.

Introduction to The Jura

The Jura arcs north of the Alps in limestone steps: vine-covered Revermont foothills first, then forests, turquoise lakes and summits looking across to Mont Blanc. Its reculees, blind gorges ending in cliffs and waterfalls, shelter Baume-les-Messieurs and its abbey. This was the first French wine region to be given an appellation, in 1936, and vin jaune tastes like nothing else. Comte and Arbois complete the picture.
