Le Morond, Summit and free flight site at Mont d'Or massif, Eastern France

The Morond peak rises to 1419 meters in elevation, featuring gentle pastures on its southwestern slopes and steeper terrain on its northern face.

The development of Le Morond as a recreational destination began in 1953 when Métabief established its first winter sports facilities in the area.

The mountain paths connect to the Grande Traversée du Jura, where hikers encounter Montbéliard cattle grazing fields that supply milk for regional cheese production.

Visitors can access the summit through multiple hiking trails or opt for the chairlift service, which operates during peak seasonal periods.

The location serves both as a launching point for paragliders and a vantage point offering clear views of Mont Blanc and the Alps on cloudless days.

Elevation above the sea: 1,419 m

GPS coordinates: 46.75114,6.35355
