route

Sentier du Château Cugny is a moderate out-and-back hike of about 2.2 miles in the Parc du Doubs nature reserve in the Jura region of Switzerland. The trail rises to a high point of about 2,988 feet, and the total elevation gain for the round trip is about 975 feet, with roughly 368 feet of gain on the way up. The trail starts close to the village of Les Pommerats, about 0.6 miles away, which makes it an easy addition to a day spent in the area. The climb is moderate, and the route folds back on itself, so the return is a repeat of the ascent. Several other outings sit within a short drive. The Franches-Montagnes Tour mountain biking route is about 1.7 miles away, and the Camping Municipal La Forge and Refuge de la Forge are both about 2 miles off. Paddlers can reach the Goumois boat launch at about 2.2 miles.
