La Pesse occupies a high valley in the Jura Mountains of Bourgogne–Franche-Comté. At roughly 1,160 metres, this small commune lies in the Haut-Jura Regional Natural Park, where spruce woods, open pasture and long winters shape the upland terrain. The surrounding ridges belong to the folded Jura rather than the Alps, and La Pesse is a recognised centre for Nordic skiing on the Grande Traversée du Jura network. Dairy farming remains important in this part of France, whose milk contributes to the production of Comté cheese. In the warmer months, local roads and forest tracks suit walkers and cyclists.
