A spectacular mountain setting in the heart of the Jura, ideal for outdoor and watersport enthusiasts.

Situated on the wooded shoreline of the beautiful Lac de Chalain, La Pergola is only 4km from Doucier and a convenient base for exploring the lakes, forests, waterfalls and mountains of this stunning area.
