Mijoux

Mijoux lies along the Valserine River in the Jura Mountains, in a long valley enclosed by the slopes below Col de la Faucille. Part of the Haut-Jura Regional Natural Park, this Ain commune stands close to the Swiss border and is shaped by woodland, pasture and the changing seasons of the high Jura. Mijoux also preserves a distinctive craft tradition: generations of lapidaries cut and polished gemstones here, a story presented at the Musée des Pierres et du Lapidaire. The Faucille sector of the Monts Jura ski area links the village to a wider winter-sports area. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Haut-Jura and Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.
