Mont d'Or, Limestone summit in Doubs, France
The Mont d'Or reaches an elevation of 1,463 meters with gentle pastures on the French side and steep limestone cliffs on the Swiss border.
The mountain formation dates back to the Jurassic period, creating a distinctive hogback structure that shaped the regional geological landscape over millions of years.
The surrounding pastures support Montbéliard cows that produce milk for the regional Mont d'Or cheese, traditionally aged in spruce wood rings.
Visitors can access the summit through multiple hiking trails from Longevilles-Mont-d'Or or take the chairlift from Métabief ski resort for easier access.
The mountain offers views of over 300 Alpine peaks, including Mont Blanc, while serving as a launch point for paragliding activities.
