At Juraventure, at the Col de la Faucille, we offer hiking with our donkey. Ali is very kind, loves children and will brighten up your stay.
We will give you pieces of advice to choose your way: le Petit Mont Rond, le Grand Mont Rond, la Maréchaude...
There and just before going, you could help the team preparing the donkey: grooming, harnessing and feeding depending on the schedule.
