The cheese hunt

Do you have the taste buds of an expert on our local terroir? Can you identify local cheeses blind?

It's a unique orienteering race, fun and open to all, where you have to find the cheeses hidden in the woods, taste them and recognise them precisely to win all the points! On your marks, get set... enjoy!
Starting in the hamlet of Menthières, this journey will take you to the Chalet du Sac and the Pierre à Fromage... You'll discover the history of the Crêt d'Eau pastures, the flora and fauna typical of the Haute Chaîne du Jura and the region's wealth of culinary delights!
Once at the Chalet du Sac, the cheese hunt begins... 18-month Comté or Swiss Gruyère? Reblochon or Sangle? Along the way, you'll need to use your map and clues to find out where the cheeses have been hidden. But once you've found them, will you be able to recognise the intruders?

Optional: a meal at La Gentiane restaurant to round off the morning. The starting point and duration of the walk may change depending on the weather conditions, at the organiser's discretion (participants will be informed by email or text message).
