Winter
Winter is here!
Whether you are a fan of winter sports or a lover of the great outdoors, 3 resorts are available less than 20 minutes from the center of Bellegarde: Menthières, Giron, Plateau de Retord.
Do you like winter sports?
Then everything is possible: cross-country or downhill skiing, with family or friends, competitive or just for kicks.
The domains of Giron, Plateau de Retord, and the Monts Jura, at an altitude between 1,000 m (3,281 ft) and 1,548 m (5079 ft), offer you the topography of the Jura Mountains: undulating plateaus, small valleys with surrounding woods, fir tree forests, ...
You don't ski?

Do you still have energy?
After having taken advantage of this preserved natural area, Bellegarde is waiting for you with its pool, movie theater, and Thursday morning markets.
