Cascade du Bout du Monde

Cascade du Bout du Monde is a waterfall near Beure that drops from limestone cliffs and flows through dense woodland. The water cascades down in multiple stages, creating a series of pools and streams that wind through the rocky terrain.

This waterfall was carved by water erosion millions of years ago as it gradually cut through the limestone layers of the Jura region. The geological forces that shaped it continue to work slowly through the rock today.

The name refers to a romantic notion of the world's edge from earlier times, capturing how remote and untouched this place once felt. Visitors today seek out this waterfall as a place to pause and experience the raw power of flowing water.

The hiking trail to reach the waterfall is moderately challenging and passes through forest, so wear good footwear and watch for wet or slippery sections. The area can become difficult to access during heavy rain, so it is best to visit when weather is stable.

After heavy rainfall, the water splits into multiple separate streams that follow different paths down the rocks. This rare sight shows the waterfall's full power and becomes a highlight for many visitors during their hike.
