Montoz

The Montoz mountain reaches an elevation of 1,328 meters and features limestone cliffs that extend across the northern section of the Jura range.

The geological formation of Montoz dates back to the Mesozoic era when tectonic forces shaped the entire Jura mountain range through extensive folding processes.

Local shepherds maintain traditional grazing practices on Montoz's slopes, continuing centuries-old agricultural methods that shape the mountain's grassland landscape.

Hikers can access Montoz through marked trails from the nearby village of Court, with parking facilities available at the base of the mountain.

The mountain's position between different valleys creates specific wind patterns that generate particular microclimates, supporting distinct plant communities at various elevations.
