16,75 km cycling route from Baume-les-Dames to Deluz
This is one of the most beautiful of EuroVelo 6 stages. Between Baume-les-Dames and Deluz, the Doubs River runs between dramatic, wooded limestone hills. Along the cycle path, you’ll spot vestiges of the old industries that exploited the valley up until the first half of the 20th century. This stage is accessible to all.
