Mont de Brégille, Limestone summit in Besançon, France
Mont de Brégille reaches an elevation of 458 meters and forms one of the seven hills surrounding Besançon, with the Doubs River flowing at its base.
The military fort on Mont de Brégille was constructed between 1820 and 1832 to enhance the defensive capabilities of Besançon after the previous fortification fell.
The former vineyard terraces of Mont de Brégille demonstrate the local wine production heritage that developed due to the hill's favorable sun exposure.
The hiking trails around Mont de Brégille extend for 7.4 kilometers with an elevation gain of 282 meters, starting from the Ragots parking area.
The Fox Cave, located on the slopes of the mountain, presents a distinct geological feature within this limestone formation of the Jura Mountains.
