Saut du Doubs

Cascade d’Arpenaz
Cascade d’Arpenaz was a pretty easy and straightforward waterfall for us to see and visit as it was easily seen off the A40 autoroute. It was certainly one of…
Cascade de Berard
Cascade de Berard was the lone waterfall on our France trip where we didn’t get to see it properly after hiking to it. That was because access to the viewpoint…
Cascade d’Angon
Cascade d’Angon provided us the perfect waterfalling excuse for enjoying what we think was one of France’s “hidden” gems – the charming canal town of Old Annecy…
Cascade de Seythenex
Cascade de Seythenex provided us another waterfalling excuse to explore around the outskirts of the Lake Annecy area. What made this impressive 45m waterfall different was…
Cascade de Glandieu
Cascade de Glandieu was probably one of Julie’s favorite waterfalls in France. It had what she likes to call “character” because its underlying wall had both texture and color…
Saut de La Pucelle
The Saut de La Pucelle (which I believe translates as “the leap of the Virgin” or “the Virgin’s leap”) was the lone waterfall attraction that we were able to fit in during…
Sillans La Cascade
Sillans La Cascade is the name of both the pleasant double-barreled waterfall as well as the town just upstream from it. Technically, both the waterfall and town…

Cascade d’Ars
Cascade d’Ars (or the Ars Waterfall) was certainly one of the few waterfalls we had to physically work for in while in France. This waterfall was both impressive and memorable probably…
Cascade de Gavarnie (“Gavarnie Falls”)
La Cascade de Gavarnie is certainly one of the more well-documented waterfalls in France. It sits in a glacial cirque, resulting in what we believe has to be one of the most beautiful locales…

Gimel Les Cascades
Gimel Les Cascades (literally Gimel The Waterfalls) is the name of both the collective set of waterfalls as well as the charming town above them. The waterfalls may also be…
Cascade de Salins

Cascade du Ray-Pic
The Cascade du Ray-Pic is one of the more intriguing waterfalls we’ve seen. What makes the roughly 60m falls interesting is that it is accompanied by prominent yet contorted basalt columns…
Waterfall at Etretat
The waterfall at Etretat was my excuse to include the impressive sea arches that the town is known for. The waterfall itself is probably a mere…
Seerenbach Falls (Seerenbachfälle)
Seerenbach Falls is supposedly Switzerland’s tallest waterfall in terms of cumulative height. Naturally with such boastful claims we just had this waterfall for ourselves…
Rhine Falls (Rheinfall)
Rhine Falls (also called Rheinfall) has been proclaimed to be Europe’s largest waterfall. I’m not sure how true that claim is, especially if you count the waterfalls in Iceland, but it is pretty…
