Plateau d'Hauteville

Plateau d’Hauteville is best known in France’s Ain department for its setting on the Plateau de Hauteville, a limestone upland in the southern Jura Mountains. The present commune was formed in 2019 when Hauteville-Lompnes, Cormaranche-en-Bugey, Hostiaz and Thézillieu joined together. Hauteville-Lompnes developed as a climatic resort in the early 20th century, with sanatoria devoted to respiratory care; Nordic skiing remains part of the plateau’s winter identity. Forests, open pasture and limestone terrain place the town firmly in the Bugey region, between the Rhône valley and the higher Jura.
